Windows Mail Pop3 error Vista

[Greywolf]

I have Vista Basic with Office 2007 Home and Win Mail.

When I go to Win Mail, I am getting new messages and so am obviously
connected to the internet.

However,while receiving mail I keep getting a popup which says:
Host POP3 could not be found. Secure(SSL):No, Socket Error: 11001
Error#0x800CCC0D

Why the error? and what can I do to get rid of it.
Any help appreciated.
