Enabling pop3 email on Moto MPx220?

My phone is old, and its crappy, but I cant figure out how to enable my pop3 email on this sucker. It asks me for my name, and @ where, and sometimes has the checkbox checked that says "automatically retrieve email settings from the internet"





I read somewhere that for another phone type, you have to hit up the manuf. website in order to enable it by Serial number, for the phone. So I check out moto and cant find anywhere under support or services where I can do that.





Wtfack!
