So, when I customize my Dashboard the ESPN widget defaults to Hockey, can I change it to NFL?

Also, I can't get Mail to work with POP.

I had Outlook on my windows computer and everything worked fine, I put the same entries into Mail, but can't get it to work. Is there a difference between Outlook's POP3 setup and Mail's POP setup?

Thanks.

Ok, nevermind I figured out the ESPN Hockey question, but the Mail problem still exists.

Does your server require SSL (secure/encrypted) POP? Did you configure Mail as such?

This is an application question, not a PB or MBP question.

Who is you email service provider?

You need to provide more information - how isn't it working? Can you connect but nothing downloads? What error messages do you get, etc? There shouldn't be any problem as Mail handles POP accounts just fine, so you must have an incorrect setting somewhere.
