Responding to an ancient (by Internet standards) post, with a problem only
marginally related (the difference in the error numbers suggests a
different cause to the problem)? It is good Internet manners to start a new
post when you have a new problem; especially for a post which is five
months old.

Furthermore, you omitted the most important part of the error, the verbose
message. However, I was able to recreate the message; maybe not identical
to what you are seeing, but I get the same error number. This is the error
I was able to get:

|The host 'post.pacbell.net' could not be found. Please verify that you have
|entered the server name correctly. Account: 'None', Server:
|'post.pacbell.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
|Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D

In this case, the problem is with the server name; it is incorrect. It
should be 'postoffice.pacbell.net'. So, my first suggestion would be to
verify the names of the servers in question.

If that is not it, well; you left us guessing by not including the verbose
message. OTOH, Google is your friend:

http://www.google.com/search?q=error+Ox800CCCOD

From which I deduced that your problem might be a typo; and I introduced a
typographical error in my own server configuration to prove that point. If
this is not the problem, post back with the _complete_ error message;
preferably to this thread.
