I was looking around at my Mail settings on my iPhone and noticed there's an AT&T smtp server window. You access it my Settings/Mail Contacts Cal/one of your email accounts/SMTP server/. At the top is the smtp server for your email address which is on, and below are smtp server panes for your other email accounts which are set to off. But one of those smtp server panes is for the AT&T smtp. For what function is it used for? It's vreyed out but SSL set to OFF for the AT&T smtp and the Yahoo smtp, but all the other smtp's are set to ON for SSL.

Isn't it better for the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to be on? Why is Yahoo's and AT&T's set to OFF. I can't find where to access a non-greyed out AT&T's smtp window pane.
