I get this error when i want to send any e-mail:
The host 'smtp.mail.yahoo.net' could not be found. Please verify that you
have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'pop.mail.yahoo.com',
Server: 'smtp.mail.yahoo.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): Yes,
Socket Error: 11004, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D
 
Waqar,

Have you had this E-mail account working before?

If you have then it's probably because the mail server you are trying to
access is unreachable, maybe it's down, or you're not connected to the
internet?

If it's never worked then you may have set up your account incorrectly.

Check out the Outlook pages at my website for a tutorial on setting up
E-mail accounts.

Unless you have a paid Yahoo! account, their email is only accessible from
the web.
