If your mail server is configured to require SPA, select Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA), and then complete the wizard.

Notes

If you are using an e-mail client other than Outlook Express, see your product documentation for information about how to configure your e-mail client to use the user name and domain name.
Be sure to update your e-mail client and client operating system with the latest service pack available.
