Did you type that error message, or copy it exactly?

The server name ought to be in lower case letters, also note the (') prior
to the server name -- 'POP.SUPANET.COM - it should not be there.

Go to tools>accounts>select your account>properties>server tab and make the
changes.

If you did type it then please copy and paste the exact error in your reply.

Your error message was hand-typed, as several typos are apparent.
It's hard to tell real errors from typos, so please post an exact copy.
Right-click on the error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.

Looking at your ISP's email setup instructions, I see no evidence that
they support port 995 and/or SSL:
http://support.supanet.com/pages/outlook_settings.php?i=6&u

Have you tried it with the standard settings, port 110, no SSL?

Why are you using Port 995? all the info that I have found says supanet uses
port 110, on the advanced tab of your account settings.
Unless they changed to that port recently?
