For the Ougoing (SMTP) Server, we recommend that you use your ISP’s SMTP Server since this configuration works best. Most ISP’s offer an SMTP Server free with their dial-up service and all you need to do is call them to find out what that SMTP server name is.
In the event your ISP does not offer an SMTP Server (Like AOL), then ou can use your domain name as the Outgoing (SMTP) Server. But when using this method you will need to make one small change to your setting to accomodate this. Simply give us a call and we’ll be more than happy to explain what needs to be done.
