ATT and Windows Mail

[jwhardin99]

Windows Mail and ATT has been working fine together, until recently. I am
not allowed to send mail anymore. It still receives fine. I received the
error message below.

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'st . Agnes', Account:
'mail.bellsouth.net', Server: 'smtp.att.yahoo.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10013, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

According to...

The Outgoing (SMTP) server port should be 465, not 25.

The correct settings are given here:

Not only should the sending port be 465 instead of 35, but the
SSL option must also be enabled.
