Do you really want *anyone* to a a post? There are user levels within the admin dashboard you can set to aloow levels of access, but opening your blog up to anyone will certainly attract huge quantities of pure garbage.
Some of your problems would appear to be based on site settings, so have a good look through the settings options in the dashboard.
Try reading the following guides from the wordpress codex.
For the background colour issue design and layout options
Have you checked out this for your email problems Blog by email to see if this helps your email issues.
A link to the site might be useful, it would be easier to test the comments issue.

I am brand new to WP. I set up my WP site, added a comment, went back to add another comment to it, and I was redirected to my main website. I wish I new somebody who was prolific at this so they could assist. I am a fish out of water right now. I have several questions. One, why is there no “Post” button so somebody can just add a new post. two, how can I change the background color from white to a image that I could upload. Three, I tried to setup the post by email option and that is not working either. Four, how can I resolve the “comment” issue.
Thank you
