I don't think it works with shaw. You have to use GMX. And all the settings from GMX. I'm not sure right now off of my head. If you come over tonight. Or when you do. I can should you.

It does work with Shaw now, I just can't remember my settings at work here. I will try to remember to look them up when I get home.

the SMTP server is mail.gmx.com, port 587. To: field is whatever email address you want to receive notifications. Set up with username and password from the GMX account. Shaw doesn't come in t it unless you're sending to @shaw.ca
