I can seem to get mail to go out of Outlook. I'm temporarily connected to
DSL away from home. The main setup is MSN thru Verizon.net. I'm a roadrunner
user. My incoming mail server is fine. I've tried MSN's outgoing and
Verizon's outging in addition to RR's outgoing server name. Any help or
suggestions would be appreciated. I'm on vacation and away from work with my
laptop with no way to send out emails...help!

For the next person to read this - so that you can get the help you want -
please do this because your post isn't really very clear.
Insert the answers below:

Who are you connected to RIGHT now? As in while you're on vacation. Who?

Who are you normally connected to? The account - email that you're trying to
use - is on who's network?

Chances are that one ISP isn't going to allow outbound email from one ISP to
their network. Try to set it up with authentication (outbound) using the
same information as your logon information. That's the route that I'd try
first but that still may not work. It's pretty common practice and done to
prevent network abuse such as SPAM.
