Outlook: The host yourdomain could not be found - Socket Error: 11001

When receiving the error, The host yourdomain.com could not be found, the POP3/IMAP (incoming mail server) may be improperly entered. Change the POP3/IMAP (incoming mail server) to: mail.yourdomain.com

If this is a new domain you will need to wait till domain propagation fully takes place.
