I think I have Dave, Under the Servers tab, at the bottom (Outgoing Mail
Server) I clicked yes to Server needs Authentication and then under Setting
(to the right of the check box) I used "Use same settings as incoming mail
server" and then also went into it manually and enter the account name that
starts with vznNNlll (N=Number, l=lower case letter) and my password.
Even tried it with the account name/ and the email name (thought that had to
be done in the old gte mail) all give me the same error. When I look at the
Verizon setup page, mine is a exact copy of that one, so I am really stuck
on this one !
