Well so you are using mediacom as your ISP. I would suggest to setup your account in accordance with the following, the settings for Outlook Express, are exactly the same for Windows Mail:

When you switch off your Mediacom Online Network you can still access your email account using email client. I would suggest you to configure your email program to connect to secure email server via SSL. Please use the instruction here for most popular email programs like Microsoft Outlook Express, Netscape Communicator, Microsoft Outlook, and Qualcomm Eudora.

NOTE: If you are using firewall in your PC, you will not be able to download and read your email via SSL. Firewall will not allow traffic on the ports required by SSL.

I think you are getting this information from your ISP, call up their tech support and inform them regarding the problem which you are facing and ask Windows Mail Setup information.
