Check the way you set up the email account against the bellsouth.net
instructions:

If you don't find any problems with the account, download and install
this fix with Windows Mail not running:

Although it's labelled as for mail stuck in the Outbox, it also works
in other folders. If you don't know whether to use the 32-bit
version or the 64-bit version, try the 32-bit version first. Certain
common antivirus programs, such as most of those from Norton
or McAfee, or a recent one from Trend, tend to cause such
problems, although seldom immediately, so if you have such
a program, remember where to find the fix - you may need it
again.
