  Hi, Chris.  According to a site I found using a google search, 
you're supposed to use port 587 as the smtp port, and use tls.  
The smtp server requires authentication.  Tell it to use the same 
settings as your incoming server.  These are also the
settings I'm using, so if this is what you're doing, things 
should be working perfectly.  The fact that you're not able to 
get to the new message thing is weird.  You might try seeing if 
Jaws has Outlook settings loaded.  This should be automatic,
but if it says default settings are loaded, this could very well 
be the problem.  How to fix things if this is happening, though, 
I've no idea.  I wish you luck.  I wish I could help you further, 
but I'm running Jaws 12 and using Outlook 2007, so
this is the extent of the assistance I feel confident enough to 
offer you.  I hope you get things up and running.  Please don't 
hesitate to ask me for help with anything else you might have 
problems with in the future.
