Outgoing mail server with authentication no longer working

Hi, I have a Joomla website I'm running on a personal server and recently I've not been able to receive email sent to me from Joomla. Here are my settings:

Mailer:  SMTP
SMTP Port: 587
SMTP Host: mail.shaw.ca
SMTP Security: STARTTLS
SMTP Authentication: Yes
SMTP Username: my.name
SMTP Password:  mypassword

These settings used to work up until about a month ago.  When I click "Send Test Mail", the notification that I get is a successful attempt.

Are these now the correct settings for outgoing mail?  I think something has changed and I just don't know how to fix it.  Could Shaw be blocking ME and only ME?  I don't have a commercial or busy site at all and I don't think they're blocking port 587, 25, 110, 143, etc...

I got my information from here:  Email server settings: POP and IMAP (shaw.ca)

I got Shaw Support in chat and they couldn't figure out the problem. If anyone could help me get this going I sure would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Dan
