Outlook 2003 Problem using DSL

[Jerry]

I have used Outlook 2003 for a number of years via dial-up to Worldnet. I now have DSL from a local teleco and with some trial-and-error have gotten Outlook to be able to download email from Worldnet (DLS Provider is not Worldnet, I'm coming in over the Internet, unlike the direct connect of dial-up). However, I can't get Outlook to send email to my Worldnet account. I've tried a number of combination of SSL, Authentication, password and user name, ipostoffice and postoffice as well as imailhoast and mailhoast and nothing works.

Any advice on the correct settings of SSL etc could be helpful.

Found what works:
Got Outlook going, I changed to Outgoing server to Port 465, same as that in Thunderbird, and set for SSL and SSL Authentication. Outlook never offered the Port number 465, so no idea how one gets there without know the number. Yes, I had Thunderbird working on another account and saw it used port 465, no idea what that means for comes from. Anyway, I'm good 8o

it might be quicker to ask worldnet for the correct settings

Well-known ports and their purposes are easily found using Google. Here's
one list: http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/~rakerman/port-table.html .

Worldnet also would tell you, if you'd look:
