My ISP (WOW!) has just changed mailing securities and now I have to use
a password on the smtp. I cannot get the entry to take when trying to
send. I am using SM 2.39. I have gone through a number of trials.
Their requirement is that I use no connection Security, Port 587, and
Password. I have set the smtp to these conditions, but the password
will not enter. I have cleared the password file of these and then
tried the entry again. It did not take, but the password was now in the
password file. For some reason, it appears that the password file cannot
communicate with the smtp. What am I missing here? The mail sending was
working fine until WOW changed their requirements. Wow, of course, wants
me to change to Windows Mail and IE. SM security is exactly the reason
that I avoided MS Products.

Keith, not sure why this is happening but you might try deleting both
the SMTP and the password and then recreate the SMTP.
Also make sure WOW haven't chgned whether your user login has changed (i.e.
was just your account alias but is now your whole mail address, or vice-versa.)
Previous, there was no login to send, but they changed the security requiring
port 587 and requiring user id. With that, I have to use my password. SMTP
keeps asking for password, yet it is there in the password manager. When I
try to send an email, the request for password keeps coming up and cylcling
the request, but not accepting. I have removed all the passwords in the
password manager, and removed the smtp in the setup as well. I even went
through a complete remove (did backup my email) and then reinstalled SM.
Still would not accept password when trying to send. Yet, I can go to Wow
website and sign into my account with my password and it is accepted there.
Wow is no help on SM. Wants me to go to Windows Mail and IE <Ugh>/
