I think it be simply bad wording, the manual was probably written with
modems in mind. I use SimpleMail over airport regularly and it connects
and sends mail fine.
An unrelated problem is that it keeps missing all the mail, I've just
gone 3 days with SimpleMail telling me I have no new mail (subscribed
to this list, I know that to be beyond impossible), then OS X mail gets
it all no problem.
Has anybody else experienced this? It could just be my damnably stupid
isp (bt, I direct you to an earlier rant...)
