Has it worked before and recently stopped working, or are you trying to set it up for the first time?

Either way, check that you're using the correct settings - see <http://internethelp.centurylink.com/internethelp/email-server-settings-1.html>. If it was working before, they may have changed since you first set it up.

Going by the information at that link, and looking at some of the others at <http://internethelp.centurylink.com/internethelp/email-clients-1.html>, in SeaMonkey I think you probably need to:
- Go to Edit > Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings.
- Select "Outgoing Server (SMTP)" at the bottom of the left-hand list.
- In the right-hand panel, select the relevant server.
- Click "Edit"
- Make sure you have:
  - Server Name: smtp.centurylink.net
  - Port: 587
  - Connection security: STARTTLS (I think...)
  - Authentication method: Normal password
  - User Name: Your full email address

If you've got several SMTP servers listed in SeaMonkey, make sure the CenturyTel one is the one being used; it should probably be set as the default. Each email account can be set to use a server other than the default, so also click your email account in the left-hand list, and make sure "Outgoing Server" (bottom of the right-hand panel) is set to "Use Default Server" (if CenturyTel is your default) or your CenturyTel server.

Mark.
