Gary,

I understand that. The credentials I'm using are the same as those for my
primary e-mail account. One thing I forgot to mention was that when the
wizard kept asking me to enter credentials, it used "Username" and "Password"
in the un and pw boxes. You would think that it would prompt back with those
credentials stored in the account settings tab.

Any more ideas? Thanks
