What does"the host POP3 could not be found" mean?

Using my ISP Tiscali I was trying to contact a site to leave a message. the
outlook box came up containing their e-mail address, I completed my message
but when I tried to send it got the following message: "The host POP3 could
not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.
Account POP3:Server POP3:protocol SMTP:port 25:Secure(SSL):No, Socket
Error:11001:Error Number 0x800CCC0D. Being brand new to computers I don't
understand what went wrong or how to correct it if indeed I can correct it.
Help!

It means the communication with the pop server is being interrupted. Most of
the time this is a firewall issue....Norton's, MacAfee etc...
