I have a user on Office 2000. Outlook 2K as well as Word 2K work
fine. But when she tries to send a document directly from Word, she
gets the message "The host 'http' could not be found. Please verify
that you have entered the server name correctly. Account: 'http',
Server: 'http', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 11001, Error Number: 0x800CCC0D". The address book from
Outlook does not appear in Word either, as in when she hits the To...
button to the left of the associated address field. This problem only
occurs on that particular PC; when she uses another PC she has no
problem. Does anyone know what could be causing this?

Her email account is not correctly configured, the SMTP server name is
wrong. It should be an Internet computer name, like SMTP.Yahoo.com, not
"HTTP" as you have listed. What mode do you have Outlook 2000 running
('Help|About', second line of text will say Internet Mail Only,
Corporate/Workgroup, or No Email)?
