Does your SMTP server require authentication? It should, in this day of spam. You'll need to know what kind of authentication, be it PLAIN, LOGIN, SSL, etc etc.

Should be able to look at your settings on your Mac, and copy the authentication method(s). Exactly.

I have copied them exactly...

I think it has to do with the Apple Mail and Plesk not liking each other. I use thunderbird on my mac...
