Here are the new settings for Outlook:

Update Your E-mail Client Settings (Don't Use IP Addresses)
As a reminder, the new platform minimizes the risk of data loss and service interruptions by supporting your site and e-mail through dozens of servers simultaneously. Since your account is not tied to a specific machine or group of machines, you cannot use an IP address as a server name in your e-mail client.

• Server Names
  Please change your server names as follows:
  • Incoming: accountname.ipower.com
  • Outgoing: accountname.ipower.com
    where accountname is your IPOWER hosting account username

• Port Numbers
  Please verify that your port numbers are as follows:
  • Incoming: 110
  • Outgoing: 587
    
    
• SMTP Authentication
  Previously, SMTP authentication was not required, but now it is
  • Change your e-mail client to require SMTP Authentication. For example, in Outlook, this is a check box under Outgoing Server, which says: My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication. Please verify that this box is selected.
    
    • Verify that the first option, Use same settings as my incoming server is selected under the SMTP requires authentication
