My port is smtp.ex2.secureserver.net:465

I called go daddy they gave me port 25, 80, 587 and 3535 with no SSL.

Have tried all variations of everything and still cant authenticate. Any help would be great as I do plan on purchasing this software if I can do some test runs.

Please help. Thanks for taking the time to assist

Already went through that. The proplem is that this is an exchange email hence the mail.ex2.secureserver.net host.

The settings you have posted are for a pop or imap setup. Those do have a limit of 250 emails per day but you can buy packets of 50 as well up to 500 emails per day per godaddy.

My hosted exchange lets me send 2000 emails a day in blocks of 100 per godaddy.

Since I have tried just about everything I am looking for some assistance. Should I just buy another domain and set up a basic email acct and buy the extra packets of 50 or will this software not work for hosted exchange accounts?

The problem here is that smtp.ex2.secureserver.net uses the NTLM authentication scheme, an undocumented and Microsoft proprietary authentication scheme. There is nothing I can do here. The only way is not to use that server or ask the server support to activate standard authentication scheme like PLAIN, LOGIN or MD5.
