What type of email account are you trying to set up?
Roadrunner or Yahoo?

for RR, change the Incoming port to 110, and uncheck SSL

If you have the free US Yahoo account, you can't access it with Windows
Mail. If you have the Yahoo Plus account,
see http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html
