Adding APOP to an account
To encrypt your username and password when they are traveling over the
network, some services require APOP to work properly, while others do not work
properly if APOP is used. If you aren’t sure if your ISP or web e-mail provider
supports APOP, check with your e-mail provider.
NOTE
APOP works only with accounts that use the POP protocol.
Port Number
The default is 25, the port number most SMTP servers use. If
you are not sure about the correct port number, check with
your mail server administrator.
My server requires
authentication
(ESMTP)
Select the My server requires authentication (ESMTP) if the
outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. Check with
your system administrator before selecting this option. See
“Adding ESMTP to an account” later in this chapter for
information. If you select this option, username and
password fields appear. These fields are already filled in
based on the account information you entered previously. In
most cases the information displayed is correct; however,
occasionally your authentication username and/or
password is different from your account username or
password. Check with your e-mail service provider for
authentication username and password information.
If you need to enter new information, enter a username
and/or tap the Password box and enter a password, and
then tap OK.
Username and Password fields appear only if
ESMTP check box is selected
