                        you will need to return to the previous menu (Account Info)                     - 465 - (with SSL) or 26/587(without SSL).                                                                                                                                                                  
               and then to enter Outgoing Mail Server via clicking on Host name of the server.          - We don't suggest port 25 as it is common for ISP's to block it. 
                                                                                                        - Authentication: Password
