Changed to ....? The recommended settings for hughesnet are: incoming IMAP server imap.hughes.net on port 993, SSL/TLS security, authentication = normal password, User name = email address; outgoing SMTP server smtp.hughes.net on port 465, SSL/TLS security, authentication = normal password, User name = email address.
