10. Hit continue again. If your Mail program is like mine, it will try to connect, but won’t because the Port is wrong. Wait until it says it won’t work (this can take some time), then hit continue anyway.
11. Leave SSL blank, and hit continue until you are Done.
12. Follow the Advanced tab, and change the Port to 26.
