You have been kind and patient. I adjusted the settings as you advised. As they stand now, here they are:
Incoming mail
Server host name pop3.live.com
User name: AllamakeeDemocrat@q.com
Password: ********
Server TCP/IP port: 995
***************
Outgoing mail
Server host name: smtp.live.com
Server TCP/IP port: 25
Use an alternate email address for the SMPT envelope --NOT checked.
Use this domain name in the HELO/EHLO server greeting --NOT checked.
Security
Via STARTTLS
Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking NOT checked
Disable certificate validation NOT checked.
Do a prior POP3 logon to authenticate before sending server mail. NOT checked
Login to the SMPT server using the following details NOT checked
Login to the SMPT server using a POP3 username/password NOT checked
Your instructions give gmail as an example (I've tried to sign up, but it never works, by the way).

SSL/TLS: via direct ssl connection
Enable server certificate fingerprint tracking: unchecked
SMTP Authentication: Login to the SMTP server using POP3

Server TCP/IP port: 993
SSL/TLS: via direct SSL connect
