SMTP authentication: Choose MD5 or password authentication. In MS Outlook / Outlook Express, do NOT enable Secure Password Authentication (SPA).

SMTP username and password: Use your neomailbox username and the SMTP password you set when you created your neomailbox account.

Enable SSL for SMTP. Both START TLS and alternate port are available.

If you have trouble sending mail:

1. Ensure that you've set the SMTP username and password in your mail program
2. Try with the SMTP port set to 465
2. Try with the SMTP port set to 125
