Can't connect to Sympatico SMTP outgoing server

Just signed on with Sympatico (Bell Canada). Can receive mail in T-bird and
send and receive in Outlook but cannot connect to Sympatico's outgoing SMTP
server or send email in T-bird. Over the past week 8 tech support people
over 10-15 hours of phone time have gone at this. They finally got Outlook
going but that didn't help with the T-bird problem.

All the settings have been checked multiple times, I even went to Bell's
support site to check that I had the right setting for my email address.

What is truly weird is that the SMTP server of my old ISP works in
Sympatico. (I haven't cancelled the account yet.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
