And if you don't see that settings screen, you need to activate the
Esoteric Settings plugin which came with Eudora.

If they change it to the standard mail submission port (587), you just
need to check the "use submission port" box in the personalities pane.

If it's any other port, you'll probably need the Esoteric Settngs plugin
as mentioned by others.

Yes, that should work.

More likely smtp.foo.com:587 :-)
