POP = post office protocol works in conjunction with an SMTP server (simple mail transfer protocol). It's a fast way to use an email client (outlook express, etc) instead of an http based email system.

Use the SMTP server of your ISP. Don't use some crappy SMTP server from some crappy free mail company on the internet.

If you don't know what the SMTP server is for your ISP, just call em up and ask.
