Okay firstly check all account settings. 1) In left panel select account and right-click select Settings 2) Confirm email is correct and note at bottom *which outgoing SMTP server is account with the account, should be the Verizon smtp.verizon.net. If not see it it is in the droplist. If still missing, don't worry we will fix that later. 3) Go to Server Settings: Server Type should be POP Server Name:pop.verizon.net Port: 955 Connection Security: SSL/TLS Authentication method: Normal Password 4) Go down to Outgoing Servers (SMTP) 5) Find the Verizon on identified in step 2. If step 2 you didn't have one create new with Add button, else select and click Edit 6) Change or Add settings: Server Name: smtp.verizon.net Port: 465 Connection Security: SSL/TLS Authentication method: Normal Password Username: (whatever your email is without the @verizon.net 7) If you created an new outgoing SMTP server for Verizon bot back to account setting like in #2 and now selected it from the droplist for Outgoing Servers (SMTP): You've probably buggered your passwords so: 8) Tools Password Manager sort on verizon.net and delete the passwords for mailbox://... and smtp://... and you will reenter them when prompted 9) Set the mailbox password by using the Get Mail button and enter your password when prompted with saved password checked 10) Now set the outgoing SMTP server password and created a test email and send it to yourself on another email that you have and repeat password saving like in #9.

The settings you describe work fine for me. They're not as secure as they might be (other possibilities might also exist), but they do work. To check whether I was using the right user name and password, I logged into Verizon's webmail and have been repeatedly successful with what I understand to be my correct user name and password in pulling up my FiOS e-mail account via Verizon webmail. Might anyone have any ideas on what might be blocking the authentication process when I enter my FiOS password? I'm baffled. I can only think that you've entered the password incorrectly in SM. Try this: Tools | Password Manager | Manage Stored Passwords Scroll down to verizon.net and select it, you should see two entries on the right: mailbox://mail.verizon.net (mailbox://mail.verizon.net) smtp://smtp.verizon.net (smtp://smtp.verizon.net) Click the button at bottom right, Show Passwords and examine them with a fine-tooth comb. Remember, they're case-sensitive. If worse comes to worst, do the same thing on a working system and compare them side-by-side. If one or both passwords proves to be wrong, just delete that entry. The next time you try to send a message (SMTP) or get messages (POP), you'll be prompted for the password, and you can enter it. If you like, on a working system, open a Notepad window. Then for each of the entries in Password Manager, right-click and choose Copy password and paste it into the text file. Save onto a USB stick or something and walk it across to the trouble system, where you can copy/paste it into SeaMonkey's dialog when it prompts you for the password. Be sure to delete the file when done. -- War doesn't determine who's right, just who's left. -- Paul B.

Because of the normal password? You don't need an encrypted password with StartTLS and SSL/TLS because the connection is encrypted *before* the password is sent. Encrypted passwords where useful when the initial connection to the server was unencrypted. In any case the server doesn't save your password, or shouldn't, just has the hash. -- Take care, Jonathan --- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

You've seen the oft-repeated advice not to put anything in an email that you wouldn't put on a postcard... You have missed the point entirely. Before StartTLS and SSL/TLS the connection to the server was made *first*, because it has to in order to send any challenge/response, and the password sent would be vulnerable if unencrypted because the connection was unencrypted. But with StartTLS and SSL/TLS the initialized connection *is* encrypted *before* the password is sent so the password *is* encrypted by the connection. Also the server never (it shouldn't) hold your password but gets hashed and compared to a stored hash. -- Take care, Jonathan --- LITTLE WORKS STUDIO http://www.LittleWorksStudio.com ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
