Logging onto server issues?

[RRPG]

Hi All - first time caller.

Just bought the program today and it's looking good except for one problem. When sending I am able to log on to my server but it tells me how much mail I have in my email mailbox and logs off? Totally confused?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Here's the message from the Delivery report:

Try to use the ESMTP authentication rather than POP. It is explained here: POP and ESMTP authentications

Thanks!
I've tried your suggestion with two different mail servers and both are timing out and not connecting?
Any other suggestions?

Thanks again,
Jeff

By the way, why are you using port 995 with 'smtphm.sympatico.ca'? It works just fine for me here on port 25.

995 was the info I got from the bell support site. I did change it 25 and still the same problem. This is getting very frustrating, I bought this software instead of going with a marketing company hoping I could send out my own newsletters but I'm not having too much success.

I am only trying to send out to 5 email addresses as a test.
I have a html only letter.
All other settings seem to appear okay.

Is there something I am missing? Any other reason why this would not work?

Thanks
Jeff
