When I open "Account Settings", at the bottom of the choices, are the Outgoing Server (SMTP) listings. There are a bunch of old ones listed in there that I want to delete, but I cant figgure out how to delete them. The "Manage Identities" button brings up only the server listed.

I am not trying to change the server name, I am trying to delete a bunch of old, unused server names.

Thanks

You are trying to remove servers if I understand your question. Why are you messing with Manage Identities?

From Account Settings select Outgoing Server (SMTP) Select the server to remove from the ones listed and press the Remove Button. See image.

I mentioned Manage Identities, because it brings up the current choice, and there is a delete button, that is grayed out. I thought that might have something to do with it.

At any rate, I dont have any sort of Remove Button. When I open the Outgoing Server list, I have choices, but even if I choose one to delete, there is no Remove Button.

Thanks

In which case, I think we need to see a screenshot of your SMTP server settings page.

I just found the solution. I was not clicking on the Outgoing Server (SMTP) button on the Left Menu. Instead, I was trying to do it in the box that comes up on the bottom right of the Account Settings screen, without clicking on the Outgoing Server (SMTP) button First.

Thanks for the Help!
