Microsoft Outlook email - SMTP forwarding

Hi Mr. Johnson

if you think you are in the situation that some stranger comes to your house
rining your doorbell requesting you to go post a letter for him/her. Then
you are forwarding the letter to the post office by going down there and slip
it into some mail box.

This is smtp forwarding also. you are asking your isp to send a mail that
needs to be sendt from some other server. This costs your ISP some money I
would presume.

So the best thing you do is either to make yourself two outlook profiles
with the same acccount, only with different smtp server addres than the other
one. If you want to have access to the same e-mails from both profiles, you
can just store your e-mails in one pst file on some shared location locally
on your computer.

if you do not wanto do all this work for just this server addres, you will
need to go in to your account settings every time you change internet
connection(isp) and edit the server addres for smtp.

This is also why I love my webmail when I am traveling or acctually have a
laptop available. Some ISPs have acctually a webmail GUI that looks and works
just like outlook. there are some KB's articles on the net addressing the
problem with we do not relay, it is the same as smtp forwarding.

Many service providers also have available smtp forwarding service. you can
try to contact either your isp's or www.dyndns.com to know even more about it.

Hi,

I have the following setup:
Home ISP: BT
Notebook Datacard ISP: 3

I would like to use Outlook, to send/receive email from both providers on
both computers.

I was advised that SMTP forwarding needs to be supported for this to work.

Can anyone explain what SMTP forwarding is please?

Thanks,
