"SMTP" is not a valid mail server name.
Get the correct server name from your provider's web pages, or tell
us who your mail provider is, and we can look it up for you.

LINKSYS does that sound right , im sorry i dont have a clue as to what
this all means.

LinkSys is the brand name of the router used in your home network.
Do you pay someone for Internet access? Who is that?
Do you have an existing email address? If so, what is the part of your
email address after the @ symbol?

Unfortunately, Verizon has some five different email services, so
you will have to pick yours out from their help pages:

Otherwise, give Verizon customer service a call.
