I typed the wrong host or server in the beginning and when I try to send a
message it says "the host could not be found, Please verify that you have
entered the server name correctly," but I don't know how to do that. how do
you go back to the beginning to change it? like, start over?
 
You don't have to go back to the beginning. Just edit the existing account.
In Windows Mail, go to Tools, Accounts, select that mail account,
click Properties, then click the Servers tab.
 
The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Please confirm Payment
made ', Account: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Server: 'mail.bellsouth.net',
Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0E

What does the above mean?
 
When you got that error, were you sending from home or on a
laptop away from home?
