Help with setting up the mailer function in lookout

[rhawk]

I am trying to get the mailer function working in Lookout. When i enter my SMTP information in Outlook and send a message to my cell phone it works fine.

When i enter the same SMTP address in the mailer function i get errors saying resolving SMTP server.

Any suggestions on what i can do to get it working?

Have you tried both ip address and the computer name?

Is the mail server in the same network?

You can try a free smtp server on your local computer and see if it works, such as this one, http://www.softstack.com/freesmtp.html
