Hey Gareth,

Hi Gareth,

I have everything set up per the above instructions, but AT&T now requires email verification. The following is a copy of the email they sent me.

Dear AT&T Internet Services Member,

We have received questions regarding the following error message which is received by customers when they send e-mail using a non-verified e-mail address:

“Unable to send the message. Please verify the e-mail address in your account properties. The server responded: 553 From: address not verified.”

If you have received this error message, you will continue to receive it for emails sent with a non-verified address until you verify your Yahoo! email address or any other non AT&T email addresses (e.g., name@company.com, name@college.com, name@yahoo.com, etc.). Verification instructions are available on the AT&T Help site http://help.yahoo.com/sbc/dsl/mail/pop/pop-11.html. If you have already verified your non AT&T email address and are no longer receiving the 553 error message, please disregard this email.

Thank you for your attention to this matter as we work to improve your Internet service. Our goal continues to be to make you a very satisfied customer. If you are experiencing any issues and would like to speak to a customer support representative, please contact us at 1-877-722-3755.

Sincerely,
AT&T Internet Services

I'd go with Outlook 98 and 2000, but it shouldn't matter.

Hey Gareth,

I think its this step that's not available in the RTS communications tab.

19. Under "Outgoing Mail Server" check the box next to "My server requires authentication"

I was able to set this up using my gmail account, I need to get it setup using the theatre email.
