I was trying to set up windows mail for the first time, al was going
well
then I got the following message,
Host IMAP cold not be found, please verify that you have entered the
server
name correctly.
Your IMAP command could not be sent to the server, due to non -
network
errors.This could, for example, indicate a lack of memory on your
system.

What do I need to do to rectify this? this is all new to me, thanks

IMAP is not a valid server name, although it is valid as a protocol.
Ask
your
email provider for their instructions for setting up to use their email
servers,
which should include the correct server names. Many people choose
their
internet providers as their email providers also, since most internet
accounts
include one or more email accounts. If they haven't written
instructions
for
Windows Mail yet, their instructions for Outlook Express should also
work
under Windows Mail if they don't call for the HTTP protocol. The
instructions
are probably somewhere on their web site. Or, you could tell us who
your
email provider is, and see if anyone here already knows where to find
their
instructions.

help,my provider is cogeco

And...???

You haven't given us a detailed problem statement, without which we can't help you.
