Enter into the account name field (as shown on the OE page). Enter the same into the password field when you first connect (and the 'enter password' dialog comes up).

It is strictly email, so don't mess with your SMTP settings, lest you mess up email. :-/ -- -bts -Four wheels carry the body; two wheels move the soul _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
