IMAP or POP3, what's my SMTP?

When I try to log on I get the cannot connect to incoming server
error. Does this mean regardless of username and password
authentification the server details are wrong anyway.
I went back to the original post and the fact that you mentioned AOL causes
to remember that AOL sometimes expects you to log into the mailbox
interactively via the web. Periodically, AOL presents an interactive-only
query expecting you to enter a string of characters they present to you in
an image. This is supposed to prevent abuse by spambots. Once you enter
the character string, their server will respond for some period of time.
Have you tried doing that yet?
