Default Re: Outgoing Email Server

[ QUOTE ]
Not really. ISP's these days lock their SMTP servers down to only allow traffic from IP's in their domain. It is a means to prevent becoming an open relay for spammers from overseas and whatnot.

this is right.


the other option is to create an additional "outgoing" only email account in thunderbird.


you'll then get a drop down box at the top of each email where you can choose which server to use. this is much easier than changing SMTP servers manually everytime you switch.
