Still not configured correctly.

1. On Server tab, make sure "Outgoing Server: My server requires
authentication" is checked.

2. On Advanced tab, Outgoing mail server (SMTP) should be Port 587
(double-check this), Incoming mail server (POP3) should be Port 995, and
/both/ SSL options should be checked.

3. Also make certain that you disable email scanning by your anti-virus
application (and any anti-spam applications).
