Setting up Optonline email with Outlook 2007 client

AVG Protection
6

Hi K,
I followed all instructions to the letter and now my email doesn't work at all!
Please Note:
Note: I have VERY LITTLE knowledge of email servers and network configuration!
I selected POP3 and clicked Added and named a new server
I edit the settings as follows:
Fixed host; mail.optonline.net for POP3  - and port 110 (which is in my outlook settings)
Local port: 5300
THIS IS WHERE I AM CONFUSED: HOW DO I KNOW WHICH TO SELECT?
Connection: "Secure to regular port" or "Secure to dedicated port" based on your network configuration
I tried "regular port", clicked apply and got "An error occurred when saving the configuration: Data aren't valid."
Then I tried "dedicated port" and got the same error message. What now?

I keep getting the pop up:"Email Scanner is unable to scan messages because content of connection is unknown."
I use Optimum pop email (optonline.net) with my outlook 2007 client. Has anyone made this configuration work?
