Can you tell me which outbound SMTP server you used. I have only problems with the outbound server which is not a Verizon server. Please let me know what server you used for outbound SMTP purposes!

Normally the outbound SMTP server has to be provided by the email provider, other wise if your email domain name is not part of the domain that the SMTP server recognizes as its own, it will not accept your mail for delivery.

You have to use your account to authenticate to the outbound SMTP server before it will accept your email for delivery. They do that to avoid spamers using their servers to send spam.

For example:

For my verizon.net account, I use smtp.verizon.net (port 465 with SSL on and password authentication).

For my gmail account, I use smtp.gmail.com (port 465 with SSL on and password authentication).

And for my live.com account I use smtp.live.com (port 25 with SSL on and password authentication).

They all work just fine.

Hope this helps.
