Assuming you want gmail in Windows Mail, the following link will lead you
setting it up.
Just one thing, for reason I have never been able to understand, when you
come to entering your e-mail address, enter a FAKE address.
After account set up is completed, and the system says it is done, go back
to that step and change it to the REAL one.

POP3 is not a valid server name, follow all the instructions here, including
enable POP on your account:
