smtphm.sympatico.ca is the setting for Sympatico's MSN enhanced e-mail
service which is explained here as Gary listed originally
http://www.dslreports.com/faq/sympat/3.1_Email
Unless you can now use it for the Sympatico original mail sevice, which is
what smtp8.Sympatico.ca is for.

It is a defective smtp server address from Sympatico. Sympatico is now
running into this issue with almost everyone that is using that smtp server
ady. I know because I also use Sympatico and my next door neighbor is a
level 2 tech there.
The best that they can do is to call Sympatico and get another smtp server
ady . That will fix their issue until that defective smtp server is fixed.
mine is smtphm.sympatico.ca at present which replaced smtp8
