Jerry,

Orange does not block smtp/pop access for any one. We are yet to complete
the mail relaying platform, which when you get to use it, you will
understand why the delay.

You should be able to use smtp.gmail.com or any other smtp relay that allows
you smthauth. If for example you want to use your previous smtp account with
any ISP that does not support smtpauth, but relayed email from their clients
by an allowed range of IP addresses, you will experience a problem because
that ISP does not allow Orange IP addresses to smtp through them.

 PS: Kind request... please trim the digest you receive to the relevant text
you wish to refer to, scrolling through everything posted is a bit too
long....

Of course, you might discount this possibility, but remember that one in
a million chances happen 99% of the time.
