Step 6. Now you will see the settings for that PRIMARY OUTGOING SERVER:

There are you two ways you set this up, you can either use:
1. Your domains mail server – mail.INSERT-YOUR-DOMAIN-HERE.com.au 
1.1. SSL is OFF
1.2. Authentication is set to “PASSWORD”
1.3. Outgoing Port is set to “587 or 25”

2. Your ISP mail server – mail.INSERT-YOUR-ISP-MAIL-SERVER.com.au – if you choose to use your ISP you won’t need to use a Username and Password.

3. Port – if the default 587 does not work you can try 25.
