Setting up Plusnet mailbox in Windows 10 Live Mail account

Have set up my Gmailbox in Live Mail but it doesn't recognise my Plusnet Webmail address/password. Also asking for incoming server details. Can you provide me with the information Live M<ail is requesting?

There is no need to give your Plusnet webmail address or password unless you are setting up email to send when away from home.  The outgoing mail server should be set to relay.plus.net.  SSL option should not be ticked.  The outgoing maul server does not require authentication.  The incoming mail server would be pop.gmail.com or imao.gmail.com according to taste.
