SMTP server

At home and at office I use two different SMTP server settings (related to two different ADSL provider), and I would like to know if is possible to choose a specific SMTP server on sending mails or if I need to create separate accounts for each SMTP server.

thanks

you should create a separate empty account for the new smtp - still possible to send from main account, using the smtp for the second one.

Another way is to use some mail proxy like XRay
http://www.xrayapp.com/xray/ that allows easy switching.

Another way is to check which file is modified when you change smtp settings (I think account.cfn but may be wrong). Keep two versions of that file with home & office settings. At each location overwrite the file with the appropriate version.

You can also do it with a template. This is from a folder template that I use
%ACCOUNT="Google"
%FROM="Rick <r@mymail.com>"

It uses GOOGLE account (to send) but shows as From r@mymail.com, which is a "real" account.

(I did mung them in case spammers are trolling the forum)
