How do I know if my account is configured so that I can send an email?
 
If you are talking about a Hotmail account, make sure the account settings
in Windows Mail agree with:

Use port 587 rather than port 25 for the SMTP server.

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