There are tons of tools out there to do this, however that will likley get you in trouble with your isp, so don't do it. Just call them and ask if they offer Authenticated SMTP, if they do, modify your email client to use SMTP Auth and you are done, you'll be able to send from anywhere that outbound port 25 blocking in not enabled. Most isps that have a clue will have an additional port called the message submission port, which IIRC is 567 for use when port 25 is blocked by another isp you are using. -- Harondel J.
