I am desperately trying to set up and send email in windows and continue to
get the following error. What do I do and how do I know what specifically
to put under "server" to validate account? Thanks - Sonja

The host 'SMTP' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the
server name correctly.
Subject 'TEST', Account: 'POP3', Server: 'SMTP', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

You don't have the correct server names. You get the correct
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.
