That's not the complete error message.
Right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.

You need to enter the correct server names.
Who provides your email account?

"SMTP" is not a valid mail server name. You get the correct mail server
names from your provider. If your email address ends in @sbcglobal.net
then your mail provider is AT&T/Yahoo, and use the settings they specify:

Note that AT&T/Yahoo does not support the IMAP protocol.
