unable to send or receive email. This is the error message. unable to send or
receive for the pop3 account. The host pop3 could not be found. Please verify
that you have entered the server name correctly. server pop3. window live
mail error 0x800CCC0D. Protocol pop3. port 110. secure(ssl)no. socket error
11001. I am very new at this so please make it easy for me to understand.
Thank you very much.
 
"pop3" is not a valid mail server name. You get the correct mail
server names from your mail provider. Who provides your email service?
Or to ask that question another way, what is the part of your email
address after the @ symbol?
Your mail provider will typically have a web page that shows how to
set up an email program. If you need more help, tell us the name of
your email service provider. If you currently don't have an email
address, we can help with that also.
