Recieving Mail

[Boria Condrey]

I have two pop3 email accounts on my laptop. At home I use
mail.bellsouth.net and at the office I use mail.hughes.net. My problem is I
can recieve mail at the office but I can't send it. At the office, outlook
tries to send mail through mail.bellsouth.net and I need it to send it
through mail.hughes.net. Is there any way to choose which server the mail
is going to be sent through?

hope that makes sense.

Thanks,

You need to set your authentication for your home ISP when using it at work. Otherwise, you may want to setup separate profiles for work and home and set the ISP for each to use accordingly.

Control Panel->Mail Icon->Profiles to set up separate profiles. To set the authentication, same path but select accounts and use the advanced button to set it up. You may want to check with your ISP for their specific instructions.
