The spam people say to "limit outbound port 25 to mail servers". I have a profile listed on the webpage called "Outgoing Server SMTP Settings" from long ago .... This is the one (I have a few profiles) that is designed (Default)

Server: shawmail.vc.shawcable.net Port: 25 (default 587) Connection security - none

All my other profiles use: Server: smtp.shaw.ca Port: 587 (default 587) Security: STARTTLS

Q: Might this be the problem? Can I simply delete this profile - even if it is the designed 'Default'.

Why not just change the settings to the correct ones? They are: mail.shaw.ca, 587, STARTTLS, normal password, User Name = part of address before @.

Are these 'profiles' actual profiles or accounts?

Yes these are 'profiles'. I.e. they all come from/to me as aliases.

Are you saying there is nothing special about the default profile's http://shawmail.vc.shawcable.net/ ? That it was not different from the others for some valid reason?
