That message usually relates to outgoing authentication. Try checking the "my outgoing server requires authentication" and clearing the "use separate settings" box. You might want to check with Fortune City to be sure, but almost all professional email providers now require that to keep the system from being abused (they want to know who is sending mail through their system).

That one is trickier... no idea. One thing you could check into is to see whether they offer IMAP instead of POP3 (it is way better on a mobile device as it syncs instead of downloading, plus it's a lot easier on your battery).
