I need to know the SMTP server address and port number so I can enable my scan to e-mail.
I bought an HP 8500 A910 printer and want to use the scan to e-mail feature but it wants to know the SMTP address and port number.

You can get that information from your email service provider. The SMTP protocol has nothing to do with Firefox, which doesn't do email. Web mail uses the HTTP / HTTPS protocol, not SMTP or POP3 as used by regular email services.
I have that printer too, but the scan to email function is not supported on our model. But you can accomplish the same thing by just adding another step. Just scan to a file on your desktop and email from there. I know, I was a little disappointed too, but I guess I should have read the specs more closely when I bought it.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smtp
SMTP uses port 25 or sometimes port 587.
