**UPDATE: Apparently, you need to include "ssl://" in the smtp server field if you're connecting using ssl. I added that to the WAUE_Definition smtp value and everything worked perfectly.
I found an example of this in use while digging through unrelated discussions in the forums. It would be great if someone updated the Email Object Settings page (http://www.webassist.com/help/Email/universal_email_object_settings.html) in the help documentation to make mention this.
