Could someone please tell me what "outgoing and incoming servers" are and
what do I put in these areas?
 
You need to enter the correct email server names in order to access your
email.

This appears to be your settings, but I'm not sure.

Residential:
The Outgoing (SMTP) mail server address is: smtp.suddenlink.net
The Incoming (POP3) mail server address is: pop.suddenlink.net

If you need further help, follow the instructions for Outlook Express on
that page.
 
Pretty simple. The outgoing server handles email that you are sending out,
and the incoming server handles email that is coming in to you.
Your mail provider (usually your ISP) determines the names and settings
for communicating with those mail servers. On their website will be
directions for setting up your email program.
In your case, it looks like Suddenlink.net is both your ISP and mail provider,
so go here for directions:

Those directions are actually for Outlook Express, but will work fine with
Windows Mail also.
