can not send messages

I tryed sending out a message and this error message popped up
The host 'BenLomand' could not be found. Please verify that you have entered
the server name correctly.
Subject 'driver license', Account: 'pop3', Server: 'BenLomand', Protocol:
SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error Number:
0x800CCC0D

"BenLomand" is not a valid mail server name. You get the correct mail
server names from your mail provider.
Do you have an existing email address? If so, what is the part of
your email address after the @ symbol? That part represents your
mail service provider.
Your mail provider will typically have a web page that shows how to
set up an email program. If you need more help, tell us the name of
your email service provider. If you currently don't have an email
address, we can help with that also.

Change what, the server name?
Tools, Accounts, select the account, Properties, Servers.
