You're in the wrong newsgroup.
This is a group for developers/programmers who develop in the Microsoft
technology called "DotNet'.
Try to find something with "windows" in the newsgroup name.
But probably, I'm guessing you dont need SSL for mail.bellsouth.net
Secure(SSL): Yes,
But post future questions in a more appropriate newsgroup please.

I'm trying to set up windows mail to access my bellsouth account. Have
set
it up like everything I've seen in suggestions. Am still getting error
message. I have McAfee but have disabled it. Don't know if that's
enough.
This is the error message:
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.bellsouth.net',
Server: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes,
Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
