Your outgoing mail server is spelt incorrectly. Should be
"mail.btinternet.com".
Try that, should be OK.

Does you connection to that server through any other internet provider's
equipment before it gets there? If so, such connections to port 25 are
often blocked to cause problems for spammers.

This may or may not help if you can read .doc files - I can't read it
to tell.
