Note: If you are able to receive mail, but not send it, the likely cause is that your ISP is using SMTP blocking, which means that it is interpreting mail received from your outgoing mail server as spam.

To correct this, you may need to use your ISP’s outgoing mail server instead of smtp.registeredsite.com as shown at step 6 in these instructions. Please contact your ISP for assistance.
