Outgoing emails not sending for outlook express 2000

[Sarah-Jane]

Hi there,

Can anyone help me?Everytime I try to send an email these
error messages pop up and I have no idea what to do;

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

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

I have checked server name and everything seems to be in
order. I have tried trouble shooting help on microsoft.com
but the page I need doesn't want to work and keeps telling
me that I've entered the URL incorrect (even though it's a
link from thier site!).I have checked for viruses too!
Please help me it's driving me crazy!!
Thanks folks,
Sarah-Jane x

The SMTP and POP servers should be fully quaified domain names. That is,
they should be something like "smtp.yourisp.net" and "pop.yourisp.net". Are
they fully qualified?
