    error message
    I keep getting this message:

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

    Cox Says it's the firewall, I disabled the email parts of the firewall and still get this message.:confused:

    Are you sure that's the correct SMTP server for Cox? Do you have any other problems using the Net?

    P.S. I moved this to e-mail forum where it belongs.
