email properties - SMPT or Internet?

[JenJoan]

I'm unable to send out emails and told to enter an adddress or a name will be
used. However there ARE addresses clearly visible. I noticed that if I
click on the SMPT so the 'OK' button becomes active - then the address will
send. I don't want to click on 2500 addresses to 'activate' them......id
there another way or is this not the problem?

How are you "told"? What is the EXACT text of the message? What version of
Outlook? What type of account?
