POP3 is not a valid name for a server, even though it is a valid protocol
name.
Ask your email provider (who is likely to also be your internet provider)
for their instructions for setting up to use their email servers, which
should
include the correct server names. 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 usually 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.
