The only people who could really confirm that to be true would be your ISP,
but, if the server names work in OE, they'll work in Outlook.
As for how to fix this, I would dig through the profile settings and on the
properties of the account, on Outgoing server, check the box that says 'My
outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication' and select 'Log on to
incoming mail server before sending mail'.
More explicitly, assuming 2k7 doesn't change much in control panel - Control
Panel - Mail - Show Profiles - select profile and Properties - E-mail
Accounts... - View or Change existing email settings - Next - select the POP
account and Change - More Settings - Outgoing Server and do the settings I
mentioned above.
