Thanks for this suggestion. Been there done that....and it did not work for me.
HOWEVER....(drum roll)....I took the drastic step of using my Revo Uninstall program and removed all of Windows Live Essentials from my laptop AND my desktop. Then I even ran my registry cleaner app on both PC's. Then I restarted them and reinstalled the entire Windows Live Essentials suite on both......including Live Mail. Then I accessed AT&T Internet support and downloaded and print out the doccument "Email server settings (POP and SMTP). Then I set up both PC's with the listed settings for my particular e-mail address type and wha-d'ya-know. They both now are working.....importing mail to Live Mail AND successfully sending it out of Live Mail.
Took me about an hour and a half. I could swear I have done all this before but obviously I was missing some critical step somewhere. As the A-Team leader used to say...."I love it when a plan comes together."
Danke Schoen y'all.
Now if Yahoo would just get their act cleaned up so their Web Mail would work right.....everything would be hunky-dory.
