email reply not working

[Guest]

We have sbs 2003 and verio hosting mail, and AT&T as internet provider. I
realize I can run mail through our server, but we don't yet. In the interim,
I send all mail through the exchange server, but certain mail is sent to my
personal POP account, and therefore, when I reply it sends from my personal
POP account, with AT&T settings. This all worked fine, until about a month
ago, when AT&T changed their POP setting for outgoing mail to require SSL.
Now, mail hangs in my outbox when sent from my personal account. If I change
the "account setting" to the exhange server instead of my personal account,
the mail transmits instantly. I would prefer to reply to mail and not have
to manually change to the exchange server each time I send. Is there some
setting I can change on my Outlook or the Exchange server to allow SSL
setting for POP mail sent out through my personal folder? Thanks

Change your POP account settings to use the values AT&T told you to use.

I have already gone through the changes with AT&T, but the new setttings to
not fix the problem. Mail still hangs, but the new message says that "your
outgoing smtp server does not support SSL-secured connections. If SSL
secured connections have worked in the past, contact your server
administrator".

Post the settings you're trying to use, including server names and port
numbers.

i am a new att user and could not get it to sync with my outlook 2003
either. finally i talked with a tier 2 tech guy who fixed my problem.
follow all the set-up att gives you for the incoming and going port
numbers. after you click ok go back and see if it is still set at 995
and 465. sometimes you have to enter it several times and press ok
before it will stay changed. also on the email set up page in outlook,
be sure to put your whole email address for the user name not just the
first part of your address. i hope this helps.
