Should have read

for the problem on hotmail accounts.

But I still need help on setting up Thunderbird....

Hi,

I have trouble setting Thunderbird with my email:

info@sakisx.heliohost.org

On the cpanel it says I can use Secure SSL/TLS Settings but the only settings that work are :

Incoming IMAP ,port 143 ,SSL= STARTTLS ,Authentication= NOT Encrypted (normal)

Outgoing SMTP ,port 587 ,SSL= STARTTLS ,Authentication= NOT Encrypted (normal)

Are these settings "safe"?

Also another thing that puzzles me is which name server I must choose with the above settings.

The cpanel mentions for SSL the "stevie.heliohost.org" and for the nonSSL "mail.sakisx.heliohost.org".

Which one should I use?

After thunderbird complained for SSL certificate and had to made "exception" I send a test mail to hotmail and gmail account. But the hotmail message was not send:

From info@sakisx.heliohost.org I got:

""This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.
