If you were not asked to specify port numbers when you set it up on your PC, you'll not be required to enter them on Icon/Braille +. Do you know though, if your SMTP port requires outgoing authentication? The best way to discover these things is to take a look at the email account settings on your PC for the specific account.

Actually, you need to fill that stuff out. For example, if you're using gmail, you would put:smtp.gmail.com:465If your smtp is not secure, chances are the port is 25 or 26 which would make it look like this:smtp.servername.com:25 If you're smtp is secure, your ports are eitherr 465 or 587 thanks.
