Mae, it's been 6 months and remains one most repeated posted noticesg due to the delayed implementation that was to have taken effect months ago.

If I may add for verification purposes;
1. On the Servers Tab,
d. Ensure Password is entered and click remember password(this is optional if desired, but suggested)
e. Check 'my server requires authentication' under Outgoing Mail Server
f. Click on the Settings button, then check 'Use same settings as my incoming mail server'.
