so many error codes, so many setting changes

[wylie3030]

I have been down so many dead end streets setting up windows mail, including
the whole WINDOWS mail doesn't work with my WINDOWS live.com account. I'm
gonna have to break down and ask for help. I am recieving my gmails, but
cant' send any. This was the last error message;

an unknown error has occured. Subject". Account: "pop.gmail.com', Server:
smtp.gmail.com
Protocol: SMTP, Port:465, Secure (SSL): YES, Error Number: 0x800ccc0B

this is just one of many error reports and one of many setting
configurations i have tried.
any help would be much appreciated,

OK, you can now, since Feb 17, set up Live and Hotmail etc accounts in WM.
When you set up Hotmail in the e-mail program on your PC or mobile device,
you may be asked for the following information:

POP server: pop3.live.com (Port 995)
POP SSL required? Yes
User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example (e-mail address removed)
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows
Live
SMTP server: smtp.live.com (Port 25 or 587)
Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
TLS/SSL required? Yes
