Setting up e mail accounts in windows mail

[Guest]

My question may be very silly.
I want to set up the account of my e mail accounts of hotmail.com,
yahoo.com, gmail.com, mail.com in windows mail.
My question is
1. Is it passible
2. If yest, where can I find POP3, SMTP addresses.

1. Windows Mail does not give support anymore to hotmail.
2. GMail has a tool to do it.
3. Yahoo, has a step by step at the main page.

Windows Mail cannot access webmail accounts. It only accesses POP3 and IMAP
accounts.
Hotmail - No
Yahoo - depends if it is a premium account, with POP access
Gmail - Yes, if you enable POP or IMAP on the website.
Mail.com - don't know, but it looks like webmail only, so no.

The newer windows Live Mail can access POP3, IMAP & Hotmail

Hotmail.com - no, it won't connect under Windows Mail. You may
prefer to download and install Windows Live Mail, which will connect
to Hotmail:

Yahoo.com - only with an extra cost account:

http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-08.html

Gmail.com - with a little extra effort. The instructions cover both the
POP method and the IMAP method, so choose one or the other:

Mail.com - I don't know. Ask them for instructions for setting
up to use their email servers, which should include the server
names.
