This is great. Thanks for the information. At least I know I'm not crazy.

I am using IMAP and you are correct in assuming that both it and SMTP are the free versions. I am actually getting two certification warnings back to back as soon as Outlook opens so, maybe one is for IMAP and the other is for SMTP? This is just a guess based on the fact that, if I answer No to both warnings, I can not send or receive emails and if I answer Yes, sending and receiving work fine.

I will try your solution and post back with the results.
