How can I connect wildblue.net to WLM so I can email wildblue.net from my website. Maybe I need to set something on wildblue but where and how?

Norman,
The ability to add new email accounts may have been relocated dependent on which version of WLM you are using. Try the following:
Click the blue Windows Live Mail button located on the top-left corner of the application window.

When the menu appears click Options and then Email accounts...
Then you'll need to know the general settings available from:
http://help.exede.net/articles/General/POP-IMAP-settings-for-Exede-and-WildBlue-email
The choice to use POP3 vs. IMAP is mutually exclusive and depends on your preferences. IMAP is typically used by those who wish to synchronize their email across multiple devices since all email is left on the email server itself; POP3 allows downloading from the server and deleting from the server.

Thanks alot for the help.I'm really having a bad time with this.I didn't know WLM was the same as logging in at hotmail.Thanks for that.I use browser to get hot mail I think.I now go to WLM and put in bound[wildblue.net imap port 993 then on out boumd I put in smtp.wildblue.net port 465,587.
I must be still doing something wrong.

Just to make sure....
You're not using smtp.wildblue.net port 465,587 are you?
Should be either 465 --OR-- 587, not both. :)
(Just fixed mom & dad's email for that same issue, about a month ago)
Your account settings should read:
mail.wildblue.net -- Port 993 -- SSL {encryption}
smtp.wildblue.net -- Port 465 -- SSL {encryption}

The last time I tried it I used pop port 995 it did not work.
IF I go to hot mail and send to wildblue it works but from WLM it does not.
995 is a POP email port. If you're going to use IMAP, use the port settings above.
Set up the new account as IMAP and copy the incoming (mail.wildblue.net) and outgoing (smtp.wildblue.net) with the incoming port 993 and outgoing port 465

Diana, he has a @wildblue.net email account...gmail addresses will not work..he has to use mail.wildblue.net and smtp.wildblue.net for the server addresses..
Norman, set it up as a POP for incoming mail...SSL checked for both and the option "My server requires authentication" checked.
Make sure the login and password entries are exactly the ones you use to log into your wildblue.net account with your browser...
Use all lower case for all entries in the new account.
You can use 465 OR 587 as port number for smtp...not both .
Create a new email and send it using your @wildblue.net account....to do this make sure under the accounts pane you click your new wildblue account and select "Make this my default"...when you click the Send/Receive button on WLM your outgoing email will be sent or you'll get an error message...what does that message say? There should also be an error code in that message if it fails to work..

Here is where I'm at now. I can go to my website I'm doing on my computer only. I can send an email to wildblue but it comes in at WLM. Is that what supposed to happen? I thought it would also go to my regular Wildblue inbox.I've come along ways today. Your last reply done all that Thanks much.

I go to hotmail and send to wildblue and everything works good but when I go to WLM and click on send & receive nothing comes up.It fails and can't send
with The message could not be sent because the server rejected the sender's email address. The sender's email address was 'neystad@wildblue.net'.
Subject 'mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm'
Server Error: 550
Server Response: 550 5.7.1 relaying denied
Server: 'smtp.wildblue.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC78
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 465
Secure(SSL): Yeserrors.
Also, make sure to check the "my server requires authentication " box and enter your wildblue.net credentials.

If WLM can't log into the server to download the email you sent from Hotmail then you have a typo somewhere in your account entries.
For your email login name make sure you include @wildblue.net and for password use the same password you use with your browser to log in. Also check the "Remember password option".
Make sure there is no checkmark on the "Login using secure Password" option.
Can you use your browser and log into your @wildblue.net account..?
If you can then use the exact entries for WLM account.
Or you have a typo somewhere in server addresses or port numbers,
