• Use Authentication: ON
  • username: your full email address

Hello,

Did it work and then stop working, or did it never work at all?

Try double checking all of your settings and that settings are correct such as your full email address as the username in the outgoing mail server settings.

If all else fails you can contact Sprint and get a username and password so you can use smtp.sprintpcs.com as your outgoing email smtp server.
