I never had a problem sending/receiving at home, probably because I was on a sympatico network.

you got it sympatico's smtp servers are only accessible threw their network.

which smtp server are you using smtp8/smtp1.sympatico.ca or smtphm.sympatico.ca

i'm sorry to say but your out of luck as far as the sympatico servers go
you can use a sending server like gmail but thats a little tough to setup at first

just FYI, the smtp1/8 servers do not need any ssl or authentication the smtphm servers however do need ssl and authentication
