Perhaps catalog.com won't allow you to use their SMTP server unless you
are connected directly, ie not via Metrocom. That's usually how ISPs work
to prevent you using their servers for spam.

Some ISPs and hosts allow SMTP auth. In the "Sending" tab of your mail
account you can set this up.

Some ISPs and host allow you to send _after_ receiving even if you come
from outside their network, but as that's the way PM works this shouldn't
be your problem.

There ought to be a way of changing your outgoing SMTP server depending
on your location in PowerMail. I did once ask here but not sure if I ever
got or understood the reply. I now use a host which allows me to send
mail from any location having verified me by POP password or SMTP AUTH. 

When at home try changing your SMTP server to Metrocom's.
