email sending error

[looobylooo]

good evening,

im not too sure how to explain this, and i might not even make much sense in what im asking - no change there then eh!
so apologies ok! lol

anyway, my problem is this -
i am not able to send an email to a contact via live windows messenger (?)
the email doesnt send, and this message appears :-

The host '****@aol.com' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered the server name correctly.
Subject 'Logitech(R) Mail', Account: '****@aol.com', Server: '****@aol.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11003, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

(there is nothing to click on in this message box to verify or do anything)

im not sure what this means, or what i need to do to sort this out.

can anyone offer any suggestions please?

thank you :o)

(ive *starred* out the email address that i use on aol)
