Re: cannot send e-mail? I can help
You have several problems.
Sending: As Jane already noted, the server name has a typo.
Also, the port number should be 465 instead of 25.
Receiving: Looks like you have Secure Password Authentication
enabled, which is a no-no. Go to Tools, Accounts, select the account,
Properties, Servers, untick the box for "Log on using Secure Password
Authentication".
