Port numbers must be

If you have troubles sending emails via port 25, try 26 instead.

Note: Usually, the port used for the Outgoing Mail Server/SMTP Service is 25. However, there might be a situation where your ISP might be blocking the use of port 25 for SMTP service. Many ISPsblock port 25 in order to minimize the amount of spam sent using their network. If you are facing issues sending mails using the default port 25, you can confirm with your ISP whether port 25 isindeed blocked by them.

Once that is entered, click OK.
