"pop3" is not a valid mail server name. You get the correct mail
server names from your mail provider.
Do you have an existing email address? If so, what is the part of
your email address after the @ symbol? That part represents your
mail service provider.
Your mail provider will typically have a web page that shows how to
set up an email program. If you need more help, tell us the name of
your email service provider. If you currently don't have an email
address, we can help with that also.
According to your posting headers, you are sending via Windstream.net.
Is that also your mail service provider? If so, see
