Whenever I try to send an email from a website, I'm prompted to set up an
internet email address. Since I'm really really new with computers I need
some help. Where do I find the information that I need about server types
that are on my computer to correctly fill in the form. My "regular" email
works just fine...it's when I try to contact someone from a website that I
have this problem.

Thanks for the help.
 
It would be helpful if you disclosed what your "regular" email service is.
Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, or something else?

The information depends on which email provider you're using, and you may
have to get it from them. Most people choose their internet providers as
their email providers also, since most internet accounts come with one or
more email accounts. If they haven't written instructions for Windows
Mail yet, their instructions for Outlook Express should also work under
Windows Mail if they don't call for the HTTP protocol. The information is
likely to be somewhere on their web site. Or, you could tell us who your
email provider is and see if anyone here already knows where to find their
instructions.
