Error message when e-mailing from Calibre

I've been unsuccessful in e-mailing books directly from Calibre to my Kindle 3 and would appreciate any advice. I've used both "free.kindle.com" and "kindle.com" addresses. Books transfer fine via USB cable or when sent as an attachment to amazon from my e-mail program.

When testing my e-mail settings in Calibre I get this result:


Traceback (most recent call last):
File "site-packages\calibre\gui2\wizard\send_email.py", line 98, in test_email_settings
File "site-packages\calibre\utils\smtp.py", line 82, in sendmail
File "site-packages\calibre\utils\smtp.py", line 74, in sendmail_direct
IOError: Failed to send mail: error(10051, 'A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network')


Log:
Find mail exchanger for free.kindle.com
Traceback (most recent call last):

File "socket.py", line 514, in create_connection
error: [Errno 10051] A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network[/FONT]


Thanks very much for any suggestions.
