I have used Autoroute SMPT from Elcomsoft in the past to automatically route ALL outgoing mail through the CONNECTED service: Program Description: Autoroute SMTP is designed for automatic switching between SMTP servers depending on what network you are currently working in. Target OS: Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000 Software type: Freeware RD> Why does TB insist on only sending mail through the smtp of RD> the account it was written from rather than the account it's RD> connected to? This is the case with MOST mail clients I have ever tried. Then again, my ISP's all (but two) require that their account be the sending account! Exceptions are runbox.com and my local ISP Cable & Wireless. They are open relays IF you use POP authentication FIRST. For this reason I use my local ISP as the default OUTBOX for all mail when "on island" and Runbox at all other times.
