The most likely problem you're encountering is the default for type
of account. It defaults to Apple's dot mac account. There's nothing
to indicate this in the normal corse of configurations. The problem
is that by default, the vo cursor begins in the box under the account
type. If you don't know to go back and change that configuration
item (something i've found no way to do after the account is setup)
then you'll never get your mail, even if all the other options are
setup correctly.

Good morning Caitlyn:
How are you getting your email. Are you getting email through
hotmail or yahoo or are you getting it through comcast or your
phone company. If you have not gotten any resolution to the
problem, you are free to email me off list. there may be a few
other questions worth asking. If you have gotten the problem solved
already, congratulations and welcome to the wonderful world of mac.
