Why can I receive imap.aol.com but unable to send smtp.aol.com on.

I configured Outlook 2000 as shown on the website with imap.aol.com and
smtp.aol.com on port 587. I can receive my emails from AOL just fine but I
am unable to send. My user name and password show up but when I click OK the
window comes back again and again. I eventually hit cancel and my Inbox is
updated but my Sent Items are not sent. I get some kind of authentication
error.

Sorry for the post. I figured it out. When I set up the imap.aol.com and
smtp.aol.com it asks for your whole screen [email protected] and when it goes to
authenticate it defaults to the whole screen [email protected]. I had to delete
the @aol.com portion of the screen name and everything cleaned up nice.
