Correct - but I presumed he meant the SMTP server - if not, then I’m
wondering if he might have been referring to how the SMTP server will be
selected based on the From account…

To pull down method that Bill was talking about was in the FROM field

Just for clarification - the “Antonio method” and the pull-down
menu are the exact same thing…

Ah. I see. Yes I do. So I do send from one account or another. I
want to send from the Fastmail SMTP server while the FROM is the
Fastmail acct. Is there really a problem if I own both Tuffmail and
Fastmail accounts and just place my Fastmail SMTP server in my
Tuffmail settings? I want this to be automatic, not having to
remember to choose the SMTP server using Antonio's method. For some
reason, Mailmate defaults to using my Tuffmail SMTP server, even if
I choose the FROM acct to be Fastmail. Unless, of course, I use
Antonio's method.
I'm off to be and will follow up on your reply in the morning :-)

Bill,
I really don't understand what you mean here. When I send an email
with Mailmate, it grabs the SMTP server from my old Tuffmail
account, even if it's offline. But all my mail is coming to my
Fastmail account. What would be wrong with putting my Fastmail
SMTP server in my Tuffmail account setup? I never CHOOSE an act to
send from. I just tell Mailmate to do a New Message.
Do you not have a pull-down menu in your Composer windows that lets
you pick the From address?

If I have more than one Source Acct, how do I tell Mailmate with
SMTP server to use for outgoing mail?
Each account has its own exclusive SMTP Server settings. This is
good because on the modern Internet, it is not feasible to send
mail claiming to be from a particular address through any
arbitrarily chosen mail server. It might work, but more likely
your mail would be rejected or worse: dropped silently.
