Using smtp/pop servers from different domains
 
#1

Hi,

I have a bit strange configuration, I use a pop3 server from domain1 to retrieve mail and an smtp server from domain2 to send mail.
The reason is domain1 IP is likely known as a spam IP, many emails just don't reach the recipient if sent through the domain1 smtp - so I have to use domain2 smtp server.

I want to have domain1 pop and domain2 smtp in one account - but domain2 smtp uses 'POP before SMTP' authentication, and the domain1 authentication simply can't be made the same as domain2 authentication.
Although I set specific settings to be used for smtp, if 'POP before SMTP' is checked TB seems to use the POP settings to authenticate.
Can I use different settings (not the ones specified for the pop3 server for the same TB account) for  'POP before SMTP' authentication ?

Thanks

No, you can't.
However you could use the %Account= macro in the templates for account1, that way TB will use account2 for the sending of messages.

thanks Roelof, but it's still not clear for me.
If I use %Account= macro as you suggest, can I this way use settings for 'POP before SMTP' different than the settings for pop3 specified for the same account?

No, it won't influence the account settings. However when you're using %account="account2" in the templates for account1 TB will use account2 to send the message. And so the pop before smtp of account2 will be used as that is the setting for account2.
