outlook 2003 email query

i am using outlook 2003 on windows xp, and i can receive email but cannot
send from my POP account that i set up on outlook. i have selected that my
smtp requires authentication, but i dont know which of the 3 bullets to
choose under that. Or maybe im doing something else wrong? i get an error
that i cant connect to the outgoing server and i cant send a test email.
please help??

Can you ping your smtp server? Open a command line window and enter

ping yoursmtpserver

where "yoursmtpserver" is the fully-qualified domain name of your SMTP
server, like "smtp.myisp.net"
