Lycos settings are
From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
Select the "Mail" tab.
Click the "Add" button.
From the Add menu, click "Mail."
Type your full name in the "Display Name" box.
Click "Next."
In the Email Address box, type your email address.
Under "My incoming mail server is a [ ] server" select "POP3" from the dropdown.
Type "pop.mail.lycos.com" for the Incoming Mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server.
Type "smtp.mail.lycos.com" for the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) server.
Click "Next."
In the Account Name box, type your entire Mail address.
In the Password box, type your email password.
If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box.
Do not check the boxes labeled "Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA)."
Click "Next."
Click "Finish."
To turn the SMTP authentication setting on, follow these steps:

From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
Select the "Mail" tab.
Select the account labeled "pop.mail.lycos.com."
Select the "Servers" tab.
Check the box next to "My Server Requires Authentication."
Click "OK."

If neither of them work then its down to them

I fixed it, I went to the support center and I realized that ihad to check "My server requires authentication".
