What is the error message?

Perhaps if you Google that (word for word) you can find the answer mate.

Scott it must be a problem with the provider - if you've changed nothing then I can't see why it would fail.

Are you Express, 2000, 2003?

Incoming mail (POP3): pop.orangehome.co.uk
Outgoing mail (SMTP): smtp.orangehome.co.uk
Account name: yourname.orangehome.co.uk
Password: YoUrPaSsWoRd (note case)

There is a very good guide on the orange.co.uk page that will talk you through checking the settings.
