Re: QWest SMTP's-Supported or not?

I assume you have Qwest.Net service?

The issue that's probably biting you is Qwest's "POP before SMTP". In other words, you must check for e-mail before sending e-mail. They do this because POP requires authentication but SMTP does not. Once you've logged in via POP, your address is whitelisted for sending for a short period of time.

You set your inbound and outbound servers to pop.phnx.qwest.net . Your inbound ID is yourusername@qwest.net -- note that the @qwest.net is required.

Uncheck the options to log in using SPA, and the outbound server "my server requires authentication".

You should also disable the option to send mail immediately.

Make sure you can receive mail first. Once you've done that, try sending something.

You are assuming that he has qwest.net with a qwest.net email address.
Maybe not.
