What I've done on my laptop is set up another SMTP server in my mail and

password). But when I'm at a location where the ISP doesn't care, I go
on using the SMTP server I would normally use.
I'm not completely clear on this.
You mean that when I am at the coffee shop and am using their Wifi I
would need to ID their server and add it in order to send E-mails?
I don't know; requirements vary from ISP to ISP. I just threw that out
as a possibility that might account for your experience.
The same with the Dunkin Donuts, the library, the airport, etc?
I have not had to do this before and have never heard of the need
to do this before.
Has something changed so that everyone needs to do this in SM now?
Nothing specific to SM. But from what little I've heard -- experts
welcome to jump in here -- some ISPs think this is a strategy to block
spammers.
