Setting up Mail

[catdrnan]

I have tried and tried to set up Mail. The cable company provides the inbound
and outbound addresses, but I don't use their email service. I use Gmail. I
tried to use their addresses, but then it asks for my email and password.
They don't match the emails we originally had when first getting on with our
cable company. Here is the error code: The connection to the server has
failed. Account: 'pop.gmail.com', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3,
Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
I hope this makes some sense. Help!

If you will show us the " inbound " and " outbound " addresses given by your
cable company, we can help you set up the Windows Mail account, which should
be your default account.
***** DO NOT give us your e-mail address, just the inbound and outbound.
