Hi again, This is not really relevant to your question but let me say that it's probably not a good idea to use M with POP3 servers. Support for them is notionally there, but M is an IMAP client first and foremost and I must have last tested POP3 in the last millennium. > SMTP-server, email-adress and user name.

Actually, the options are a superposition of the folder settings and identity settings and normally the latter should overwrite the former. > And if I remove all server information in the Preferences and only have > two different SMTP servers in the properties of the two folders, it can not > send mail at all, but reports instead: Invalid host specifier: > /novalidate-cert This is obviously a bug :-( > Obviously it tried it with no host at all.

How do I achieve this? What definitely works -- as I sometimes use this myself -- is to have several identities with different SMTP servers and select the one you want to use explicitly in the combobox to the right of "From" address in the composer window. Did you try to do it like this? Regards, VZ
