Thank you. I've very seldom had to look at the port numbers for the servers when using Outlook. So since I didn't see any prompts looking for these numbers, I assumed one didn't have to put them in. My server does use port 25.

For example, if you're using gmail, you would put: smtp.gmail.com:465 If 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.
