The host isn't named "pop3." Ask your ISP for the correct POP3 and SMTP
server names. They'll probably be something like "pop3.ispname.net" or
"mail.ispname.net."

The server name will be something like pop3.YourISP.com. Ring them and ask.
A lot of ISPs call the server mail.YourISP.com

You are posting from an rr.com account. Call your cable ISP
(Road Runner) or look on their support web page to find out
the correct name of the incoming mail server.
