I am trying to use widows mail but i keep getting this

The host 'Linda' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the
server name correctly.
Account: 'Linda', Server: 'Linda', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

I dont understand..HELP
thank you
Linda
 
You have told the machine your mail server is called Linda. Most mail
servers have names like mail.mvps.org or pop3.somedomain.com. Many ISPs have
different names for servers that send mail to those that recieve.

You can change it at Tools - Options - select Linda then Properties - Server
and enter correct server (ring your ISP) here.

You need to tell Windows Mail the name of your ISPs incoming (POP3) and
outgoing (SMTP) servers. They should have provided documentation, or
get them on the phone - to lead you through the process.

Also see HELP & SUPPORT in Vista. In the search box, type CONFIGURE MAIL.
 
You posted from rr.com. Please ask Road Runner (your cable ISP)
what the incoming and outgoing mail server names should be.
