I am trying to set up my windows live email account to my windows mail email
account that is located on the start menu of my computer. I am needing to

Re: incoming and outgoing email servers

You can't access a Live email account with Windows Mail.
Use the newer Windows Live Mail.

Re: incoming and outgoing email servers

If you mean you are trying to set up an account that uses the email address
@live.com or @hotmail.com, that can't be done in Windows Mail for free
accounts. In order to accommodate free Live/Hotmail accounts you will
need to upgrade to Windows Live Mail:
