Thanks Chris. Couple of followup questions now. I can definitely access the
IMAP server - she's receiving her mail just fine. IT-person says that the
smtp server is the same server so shouldn't "Memphis" work on its own in the
smtp field? I did also try Memphis.hostname.com but that returned some other
error I can't remember (server not found, I believe). They have a number of
hostnames in the company so it is quite possible I hit the wrong one.

My thoughts as well. But the local IT person said they use proxies for
everything. And then when I pushed her to call the IT folks above her to
find out what port they're using for mail they told her 25. Either way, when
I checked the mail proxy box and put in 25 as the port it still didn't work.
Maybe I had the wrong server name in that box. Will check that on Monday.
