Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 (via comcast)
Trying to setup up a sharepoint site that I can have emails sent into a library. The option for email is not showing under the settings/communications. (only RSS settings). The basic help indicates " E-mail support is enabled in Central
Administration at the Web application level." I do not know where this central administation area is so I can enable email for the site library.
Help wit this would be apprereciated

You need to configure incoming e-mail for your farm.
See this link for details on how to configure:

The server Farm resides at Comcast which I am not able to access, so this solution does not appear to help.

If you cannot setup the incomming e-mail on the server, it will be quite hard to send e-mail to your library.
You should contact the people hosting your server and ask them if they can provide you with the service.
Sorry.

Hi,
You should enable and configure e-mail setting for a library:
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/enable-and-configure-e-mail-support-for-a-list-or-library-HA010082307.aspx
Someone encountered that they couldn’t find “incoming e-mail settings” as an option in the
list settings, because they hadn’t installed SMTP service on the SharePoint Server.
Once STMP is configured, you have to then set “Incoming e-mail settings” in Central Administration.
I wish you every success in your important work.
Best regards,
