What are some of GCI Basic Settings?

Incoming Server: mail.gci.net

Outgoing Server: smtp.gci.net

GCI requires outgoing mail to be authenticated. So ensure there is a check in the box which states My Server requires authentication or Use secure authentication (different applications will have a little different wording, but all should have an option to check outgoing authentication)
