Problems:
When you click the "Test Settings" button in the Outlook account properties and get:
"Send test e-mail message: Outlook could not logon to the outgoing mail server (SMTP). The problem could be the server name, your server may require authentication, or your server may not support SSL. Verify authentication and SSL options under More Settings."
The problem could be your SMPT server has been configured to require authentication, but your Outlook/Outlook Express authentication are not being configured on the client.
