i have setup all the pop and smtp server fine so i can't understand what's wrong!

Are you sure the POP authentication is the correct one? I mean, have you tried ESMTP?

 

[vageenadispenser]

i've tried with that one and it worked!
at least with one contact,but i can't send my try to 500 people every time!
thank you

If you can't send to all your contacts it is because you have an authentication failure. Look for another error "503 Bad sequence of commands". You should find a relying error
