Select the "Mailer" tab and set the first field to "Use a SMTP server 
(HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)".  That will open up the rest of the fields you 
need to fill in.  If it helps, our settings are:

host: smtp.antespam.com
port: 587
localhost: '' (empty)
auth: PLAIN
username: '' (empty)
password: '' (empty)

We are safe using PLAIN because our smtp servers are on the same 
internal network.
