Aol have changed the smtp port setting from 25 to 587 to redue spam. How do I
configure Outlook 2003 to accomodate this change?
 
From memory...

Tools > Email Accounts > View/Change existing accounts > Highlight POP/IMAP
account > Change > More Settings button and then the last tab.

By the way, I would recommend that you apply service pack 2 to
Office/Outlook 2003 if you haven't done it yet. (There are fixes in SP2 for
Outlook that address sending messages on ports other than 25)
