Please note, when you are setting up a [email protected] account (3rd Party email) in Outlook using Rogers' outgoing smtp.broadband.rogers.com - you will have to register that [email protected] with Rogers. Otherwise, you may see a "553 Error Message" when you attempt to send e-mail.

To register a [email protected] account: Login at http://rogers.yahoo.com (with your @rogers account) then go to Settings > Accounts (1.)
and press the add button (2.)
