Help with accounts and different smpt

[Guest]

Hi

I have one person with a laptop at our office (Xp Pro and Office2003).
Outlook is set up with IMAP and with the smpt address for our mailprovider.

He wants to use his computer frome home, but he has another ISP than our
office so the smpt address will now offcourse be wrong. He can receive mail
but not send.

What is the best way to set up this computer so it works both from our
office and his home?

Do I just create to accounts - one with the office setup (imap and smtp) and
one for his home (with same imap but different smtp)?... or will this create
error messages!!!

it should work with the two accounts, but it depends on his provider at
home. Some are ok with any from address, as long as he authenticates, others
require the use of the from address on the account - in which case, you can
use the work address in the reply to field.
