Ubuntu
evolution package

can't use launchpad -- no recognition netzero.net

Asked by Captain Jack Logan

When I try to send an e-mail to <email address hidden> or <email address hidden> with return address <email address hidden>, I keep getting error messages that say "Host hookup failed; Netzero not known." I'm new to Linux and I'm using Ubuntu. There's a lot of terminology associated with e-mail that I've never been able to learn; most FAQs either assume that I know things like the difference between SMTP and POP and/or they answer questions that don't have anything to do with my problem. I think that FAQs are written for a level above mine by people with training in programming. I don't even know what SMTP or POP are. Please send -- or tell me where I can find -- precise, detailed instructions for using Launchpad to send e-mails. I have read the instructions and they somehow don't make sense. I want to be able to send OpenOffice text and general video attachments. Thank you.
