Using Windows Live Mail with Windows 10

Good morning

Can someone please  help me with Windows Live Mail. I recently installed the Windows 10

program and when I try to send an e-mail via Windows Live Mail, I get a message saying that

transaction has failed.  I reinstalled Windows essentials, and have signed in, but am still

unable to use Windows Live Mail. (guess me 78 year old brain doesn't work too well),

Any detailed help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you
