Who is your email provider?

blacknight is my email provider. Website: http://www.blacknight.com/?gclid=CInX7K259awCFUFA4QodzHYITA

The blackknight instructions give two choices for setting your incoming mail server
1. pop33r.cp.blacknight.com : if hosting is on cp.blacknight.com
2. mail.your-domainname.com : if on Direct Admin or Helm
Another source of information is http://www.irishwebmasterforum.com/server-technical-administration-tips-and-queries/7228-pop-access-ireland-com-mail-service.html
And this: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=65922939 .

Strings enclosed by < and > are variables and need to be filled in with real values. The choice of 25 or 587 is another one you are going to have to make by trial and error. Your ISP provider may block 25.

Documentation for blackknight email solutions is poor. My best two guesses for you appear below.
