Hello: I guess this will be considered off-topic, but I could use some help.
I'm still happily using CE at home on a dialup account, but just today migrated to Mail.app at work... on another computer... on a wireless network... and a different account (though the same ISP as home). I was able to configure everything (10.4.10) to receive mail, but was blocked sending mail (Port 25 refusal by the ISP). I tried to read up on existing port related posts here, and found reference to Port 587 as an alternative. My question may be all too obvious to those in the know, but... Is it worth my while to just quietly change the port to 587 in Mail.app's prefs, and see if it works? Or should I contact my ISP and see what's 'allowed'... what they support. If it matters, it's a POP account with 'SMTP' in the address... and Mail.app was actually set to use Port 110. Advice would be much appreciated. I've been using Hotmail at work and loathe it... I'm wanting to get as far away as possible from it. Thanks Very Much.
