From your email account provider... they will have a webpage with the
correct names & settings.
If it's Yahoo, you can't access their POP3 servers unless you pay for the
Plus account.
Do you get an error message when you try to receive? If so,
right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.
I see you posted with a Yahoo email address. Is that your
only email address? US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail
access only, no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but
not Yahoo webmail. There are two Yahoo solutions:
1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.
If you are OK with using a non-Yahoo email address, you have three other
solutions:
* Use the email address assigned to you by your ISP.
* Get a free Gmail account.
* Get a free Hotmail/Live account, and use it with the Windows Live Mail email program.
