Um, if I understand your question correctly, then your assumption is 
correct.

If you have 3 email accounts. Each from their own ISP (say A, B, C), and 
you normally send all your email out via ISP C... then you would not be 
able to use this version of Emailer.

This version will connect to the SMTP Server listed in the account in 
question, BUT, it will attempt to authenticate using the POP Username and 
Password from the same account in question.

So you would not be able to put in a SMTP server that belongs to an 
provider that will not accept the POP info as valid authentication 
information.

I understand there are people that would want to do this, I do it myself 
for some email accounts, but as of right now, you just can't. 

(To enable this, I would have to find a way to ask for the username and 
password you want to use with the account, and that involves adding more 
fields to an account setup, that wouldn't be the end of the world... BUT 
it also involves storing that info along with the other account info, and 
that is likely to be impossible for me to undertake... I have yet to even 
figure out the structure of the mail database, which is where the account 
info is stored, and without knowing the structure, there is zero hope of 
me figuring out how to safely add more data to it).


Baton Mail does allow you to do what you want. Baton Mail will accept any 
SMTP Server and any username/password combination to try for any email 
address. In Baton Mail you set them all yourself, and can set them to 
anything you want, Baton Mail doesn't care if they match the email 
address you are using in the email being sent (although some providers 
like Mac.com do care).
