i'm pretty sure i entered the correct incoming and outcoming server when
setting up my mail account but when i tried to send/receive for the first
time, i got this message:

Account: 'Lbserver1.lbi.local', Server: 'Lbserver1.lbi.local', Protocol:
POP3, Server Response: '-ERR Cannot connect to POP server 192.168.1.10
(192.168.1.10:110), connect error 10061', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server
Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC90

any help would be much appreciated.
 
Where did you get that server name from? It is not a server name
that is routable on the Internet. Are you using a server that is on an
intranet (local area network)? If so, contact the network administrator.

Are you maintaining you own mail server instead of using a server elsewhere
on the internet, such as your internet provider's server? If so, you're
likely
to get more help in newsgroup:

microsoft.public.windows.vista.networking_sharing

If not, that's an incorrect server name, and you need to ask your email
provider for their instructions for setting up to use their 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 if 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 their instructions.
