Thank you both for the help, is the little things that always get in the
way of the big ones.

I think you'll find that the server names are pop3.blueyonder.co.uk and
smtp.blueyonder.co.uk respectively (i.e. lose the @ sign).  Just make
sure
that you can resolve the names on your machine by opening a terminal
session
and using the "dig" command (e.g. dig pop3.blueyonder.co.uk).  If there
are errors
resolving the names, you won't be able to connect to them.
 

Also, make sure that you can get through to the servers, by firstly
pinging them, and
then by trying to telnet to them on the pop3 and smtp ports.

THEOREM: VI is perfect.
PROOF: VI in roman numerals is 6.  The natural numbers < 6 which divide
6 are
1, 2, and 3. 1+2+3 = 6.  So 6 is a perfect number.  Therefore, VI is
perfect.
