I'm having trouble setting up the email service with my domain. The POP server works properly and receives emails that are directed to me. However, the SMTP server isn't working like it should. I'm using Mac Mail v4.3 (latest). My SMTP settings are below.
Server: smtp.webhost.dynadot.com
Port: 25
SSL: Off
Username: jason@jasonfalleiro.com
Password: entered
Authentication: Password
I'm assuming everything is correct since this was posted in a guide on this website. |

| Can you post the exact error message? Also, have you tried using port 1025? Some ISPs might have port 25 blocked. |

| It's so Sad that this post was started in 2010, and the solution to it was to change the port from 25 to 1025, yet it's 2012 & under the dyandot smtp setup it's still saying 25. |

It depends on how you're setting up your email. Our help file for Mac Mail (and Outlook) has always suggested port 1025:
