Spam filter help please....

Hi

I installed spamilhator yesterday and have manually set up the email accounts as the set up wizard only found 3 old email accounts that have long been unused and deleted from the system.
I altered the username and POP3 mail server details in accounts and receiving mail seems to be fine however sending mail keeps failing as it unable to log onto the mail server with the altered username that Spamhilator tells me to use.
How can i set up outlook to let me send mail whilst filtering incoming junk.

Cheers

Bump - help please.

If not with this then is there a better free Spam filter?

I have tried a number but this seems to be better than most if you keep using it and reporting new spam.

I was lucky and Spamihilator worked straight off for me, but there is a Spamihilator English language forum where you might get some help here:

Edit: found this in the FAQs:

P02. I cannot send e-mails anymore!

Your e-mail provider requires authentication before you can send e-mails, but Spamihilator changes your user name in your e-mail client.

In Outlook you can enable the authentication as follows:
Launch Outlook and open your account settings. Choose your e-mail account from the list and click on "Properties". Open the "Server" pane and enable the option "Server-Authentication" (below). Click on the "Settings" button. Enter your right user name and your right password. Close the dialog by clicking on OK.
