I am attempting to set up my Windows Mail but it is asking for an e-mail
address. I do not know where to find that not the pop server or smtp server
(if necessary). My provider is Verizon Wireless. I do not remember them
giving me any kind of e-mail address, etc.

If any one can assist, it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
 
You've never used email before, and you don't have an existing email
address? Hard to believe, but if true, you can easily apply for a free
email address from Hotmail or Gmail.
 
I failed to notice you posted with a Hotmail address. If that is
your current email account, you can set up a Hotmail account in
Windows Mail using these settings:

Note: Windows Mail's new account wizard is hard-coded to reject
Hotmail addresses. So, when you enter your email address initially,
give it a fake one, such as (e-mail address removed). After the account setup
is complete, go back and correct your email address.
