For this, you'll probably have to choose an email provider that doesn't
use the usual port 25, since that port is often blocked for wifi
connections.
The one I remember is gmail.com, so go here to start an account:
<https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=mail&passive=true&rm=false&co ntinue=https%3A%2F%2Fmail.google.com%2Fmail%2F%3Fn sr%3D1%26ui%3Dhtml%26zy%3Dl<mpl=default<mplcac he=2>
For instructions on how to connect Windows Mail to that account,
you'll probably want the POP connection method, so look here:
