Default increditmail and outlook express

You have the wrong name for the mail server. There is no server named
'pop3.bmg50.com' which is what the error message is trying to tell you.

There is however a server named 'mail.bmg50.com'. And it does respond
to POP3 access.

Fix this in Outlook Express at Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties,
Servers.

When I switch to a high speed internet I lost my increditmail and
outlook express 6, I can get my mail in web mail but when I open
outlook express I get a message that said,
The host 'pop3.bmg50.com' could not be found. Please verify that you
have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'pop3.bmg50.com',
Server: 'pop3.bmg50.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No,
Socket Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D.
I can get the mail from bmg50.com from his e-mail program but not from
outlook express.
