When I try to send email...

[Huntressx2]

when i sent a email...it would not go because of error saying host not there.
I have comcast and yahoo....this is the message i get.

The host 'yahoo' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the
server name correctly.
Account: 'yahoo', Server: 'yahoo', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

"yahoo" is not the correct name for the mail server.

Aside from that, most free Yahoo accounts don't have POP access,
only webmail access. Yahoo has a Mail Plus upgrade for $20 per year
that does give you POP access.
