OK, if we've ruled out the username and the password, the only things 
left are the server name, the port number, connection security, and 
authentication method. We've seen conflicting information about the 
server name -- smtp.mail.wowway.com or just mail.wowway.com. Have you 
tried both?

I had similar problems with ATT/Yahoo a few years ago.
The ATT techs were not familiar with computers or the internet
beyond browsing to happy eye candy pages.
They were of no help whatsoever.  Sounds like WOW expertise is similar.
The OP may want to ask for a Level 3 tech.

This is what I meant by "Cookies allowed only from the requested

radio button for "Allow cookies for the originated website only (no
third-party cookies)".

To manage individual cookies, I use the PrefBar extension, having

I have the same version of Flash but do not have Shockwave.

Works fine on Internet Exploiter.

It is indeed likely your settings.  Here is my somewhat restricted

Shockwave Flash 20.0.0.306 and Shockwave for Director 12.2.3.183 both

When I click the "Play" button, nothing happens. No activity in the 
status bar, no spinner, no throbber, nothing. Any ideas?

My ISP (WOW!) has just changed mailing securities and now I have to use a
password on the smtp. I cannot get the entry to take when trying to send. I
am using SM 2.39. I have gone through a number of trials. Their requirement
is that I use no connection Security, Port 587, and Password. I have set the
smtp to these conditions, but the password will not enter. I have cleared the
password file of these and then tried the entry again. It did not take, but
the password was now in the password file. For some reason, it appears that
the password file cannot communicate with the smtp. What am I missing here?
The mail sending was working fine until WOW changed their requirements. Wow,
of course, wants me to change to Windows Mail and IE. SM security is exactly
the reason that I avoided MS Products.

See if updating to SM 2.41 from here
(https://l10n.mozilla-community.org/~akalla/unofficial/seamonkey/nightly/latest-comm-release-windows32/).
I know many ISPs killed certain negotiation if it was encrypted but it
may or may not be the same in your case. Still, it's worth a shot to
try and report back if it helped.

I updated to 2.41,but it did not help. Same problem of not accepting
the password.

As an aside, I did install windows mail and had the same problem of not
accepting the password. I did get a more complete error with it tho.

Two thoughts:

1) It's been suggested several times in this thread that you confirm
WOW's
username requirements for SMTP. Some ISPs want only the prefix (the
part
before the "@" sign), and some want the entire email address.

Edit | Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings | Outgoing Server (SMTP)
This will be the last item on the list, after your email accounts.

Double-click the server name in the list on the right, or click it
once to
select it and then hit "Edit." At the bottom of the dialog, the last
entry is
"User Name:" -- is it exactly what WOW wants? Correct case, correct
punctuation, correct content (prefix only or prefix@domain)?

2) When you check the password manager, are you verifying the POP
password
(for receiving mail) instead of the SMTP password? There should be two
distinct entries; be sure you're looking at the right one. And the
password
might well be different.


I have the saved password app that connects directly into SM. The
password that I am
looking at is labeled smtp so I know that I am looking at the right
one.  The pop one is
under the WOWxxx.com listing.


Are you positive that your settings per the pdf are correct?
http://www.wowway.com/docs/wow/documents-support-internet/pop-imap-settings-north.pdf





I have created a WOW smtp connection with the informations contained in
the pdf given.
Here is my test: http://home.scarlet.be/~rs268454/WOW-smtp-settings.jpg
Keith, try, or check/modify your SMTP parameters using this JPG 

I reproduced the settings exactly as you have in the screen print.  It 
sat there and did nothing but show the progress bar in the lower right 
as fully extended.  Did not request password or any other action, but 
did not send the email.
As an answer to another contributor, I installed Windows Mail (2012) for 
windows 7 and it failed as well.  Kept requesting the password was as 
far as it would go.  There was a more complete error message which was:
