The host '(e-mail address removed)' could not be found. Please verify that you have
entered the server name correctly.
Subject 'test', Account: 'home email', Server: '(e-mail address removed)', Protocol:
SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11003, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

You have entered an email address for a server name - that server name needs
to be the pop server for your email account.

You have entered an email address for a server name - that server name
needs to be the pop server for your email account.

According to www.mts.net your servers need to be configured as:

POP: pop.mts.net
SMTP: smtp.mts.net

Here is a link for configuring Outlook Express that should be similar to how
you need to set things up in Windows Mail. <http://tinyurl.com/3arbp6>

You have used your email address as the server name.

Use something like pop.mts.net and smtp.mts.net for
incoming and outgoing servers respectively.
