The details depend on who is your email provider. Many people choose their
internet provider as their email provider also, since most internet accounts
include
one or more email accounts. Ask your email provider for instructions on how
to
set up to use their email servers. If they haven't written instructions for
Windows
Mail yet, their instructions for Outlook Express should also work under
Windows
Mail as long as they don't call for the HTTP protocol. The instructions are
probably 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 the
instructions.

Windows Mail won't connect to Hotmail.

We need more information that that.
Do you know what information to put in or do you need to find the
information?

Go to Tools, Accounts, Add, and follow the prompts.
Who is your mail provider? If you only use Hotmail you will need to
switch to Windows Live Mail since Windows Mail doesn't handle
Hotmail accounts:
