assuming it is not a server name typo problem, which version of outlook?
Have you tried making a new profile from scratch? Detect and Repair? (office
diagnostics in outlook 2007).

Has anyone ever figured out this problem?
"Task 'pop.earthlinl.net - Sending' reported error (0x800401F): "The
operation failed. An object could not be found.'"
I have tried all the instructions from both Earthlink and Mircosoft many
time without success.

TIA-Hopefully-
