Yam (2.6) Please Help

[atom-ant]

Hi
Can anybody help me out as I`m having trouble to set up my E-mails.
I thing I have set the ping up right but I`m still having trouble when it comes to setting the e-mail up as my knowledge on the Amiga is a bit slow as I have been trying to set this up for months.
I can use the Internet and is fine and I can receive e-mails but can not send them.
When I send I keep getting this error:- Couldn`t connect to host`smtp.virginmedia.com`.
The mail server is currently down or doesn`t supprt the smtp protocols. I have made sure my setting are right in yam and I believe it is right.

I believe there is something wrong with my smpt but how do I change the smpt?

THESE ARE MY SETTING FOR YAM.........................

There is one thing I can not understand when I use my other e-mail address which is ntlworld.com everthing works fine but as soon as I use my virginmedia.com address I can not send e-mails. Please help.

I guess you configured it like this:

Sending mail (SMTP):   
 
SMTP server name: smtp.virginmedia.com
SMTP SSL: Enabled
SMTP port: 465
SMTP authentication: Enabled (or 'Password' on Macs)
SMTP username: Full e-mail address, e.g., richard.branson@virginmedia.com

And you might wanna set Domain as: virginmedia.com
You should also check if SMTP AUTH needs to be on or off.

Everthing is working fine did not put my full address in the User Name. Thanks for all your help.
