I don't really know. I think if I had that problem, I would at least 
try setting it to 587 alone, to see if that worked.

As for SSL and Authentication, I think that's something your provider 
has to tell you. But I know that at times I have just tried different 
combinations for people, until I found one that worked.  If their 
servers require authentication, their tech support people should be 
able to tell you so. Do they have a web site that shows how to 
configure email clients?
