server information

[Keith]

I think I got the Incoming mail setup right POP3, I used my email address.
The Outgoing mail says it wrong (SMTP) and I used my email address there
too. What do I suppose to put in that one or both if it is wrong too.

(e-mail address removed) or (e-mail address removed)

No, you don't use your email address as a server name. And you shouldn't
post them here on these newsgroups, as spammers will use them.

The free US-based Yahoo accounts only offer webmail access.
Windows Mail can only access POP3 and IMAP accounts.
But if you have the Yahoo Plus account....

You can now access your Hotmail/Live account using POP3 in Windows Mail
(from most countries).

However, Windows Mail is hard-coded to reject Hotmail/Live/MSN accounts.
But you can fool it by entering a fake email address ([email protected]), and
then changing it to your real address ([email protected]).
