No, but there are a lot of other possibilities, including SMTP AUTH or other requirements. Their support staff should be able to tell you if they've made any recent changes.

I've used that in a couple of installations where basic email was a problem to get set up. > Outlook can't be automated an longer due to the (in)security messages it > generates.
