My outlook mail has been working fine until a few days ago, i keep getting
the error below. i have tried the following found on the forum (Wrong mail
server name. Try pop.orangehome.co.uk) but this still does not work.
Has anyone got any idea what is wrong.???
The error is as follows.

The host 'pop.wanadoo.co.uk' could not be found. Please verify that you have
entered the server name correctly.
Account: 'pop.orangehome.co.uk', Server: 'pop.wanadoo.co.uk', Protocol:
POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number:
0x800CCC0D
Thanks in advance for any assistance with this...
 
Are you sure you have changed the server to:

pop.orangehome.co.uk

smtp.orangehome.co.uk
 
Your error message shows you are still using pop.wanadoo.co.uk rather than
pop.orangehome.co.uk. If you get an error message with pop.orangehome.co.uk
please post it.
 
Can i just say thanks to your for your suggestion. great help. all working
fine now.
WELL DONE> :-))
 
I understand that Orange has made some repairs, and now
pop.wanadoo.co.uk is working again. Those two server names are
supposed to be aliases for each other.
