'SMTP' is not a valid server name. Ask your email provider (who is probably
also your internet provider for their instructions for setting up to use
their
email servers. If they haven't written instructions for Windows Mail yet,
use
their instructions for Outlook Express but under Windows Mail instead.
The instructions are probably somewhere on their web site. Or, you could
tell us who your email provider is and see if anyone here knows where to
find the instructions.

'SMTP' is not a valid server name. You need to ask your email provider
(who is probably also your internet provider) for their instructions for
setting up to use their email servers. If they haven't written instructions
for Windows Mail yet, use their instructions for Outlook Express but
under Windows Mail instead. The instructions are probably somewhere
on their web site. Or, you could tell us who your email provider is and
see if anyone here already knows where to find the instructions.
