Tell us who your email provider is, and post the entire error message, and
someone can probably help you..
Right-click on the error message, select Copy. Then Paste it into a reply
here.
 
You posted with a Yahoo email address. Is that your only email
address? US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only,
no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not webmail.
There are two possible solutions:

1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.

2. Pay Yahoo to get their premium "Mail Plus" service:

and use the special settings for that service:
