Q: Tethering. iphone5 email smtp server issue

I have an wifi ipad 2 and an iphone 5 on EE 4G network. I have configured the iphone 5 as a wifi hotspot, I can connect my ipad, browse the web receive emails etc. the problem comes when I want to send emails, it keeps telling me there is a network error. I know this is not true, I have a feeling it has something to do with SMTP outgoing server, possibly the port number?  The incoming servier is port 110 and I have outgoing set at port 587 but think it could be some other port or some other issue. Would appreciate any help anyone can shed on this issue
