To send SJPC mail when connected to most ISP's, you can send SJPC mail by specifying mail.sjpc.org as the outgoing SMTP mail server. However, when connected to some ISP's (i.e. Earthlink, NetZero, etc.), you must specify their outgoing SMTP mail server rather than mail.sjpc.org.
When you use Outlook Express, one
profile is used for multiple mail accounts, and when send/receive is
initiated, mail messages (or IMAP headers) are received from all POP
and IMAP accounts into the same folder. If you want separate mail
folders for each account, you have to use multiple identities which
are described in the Outlook Express help text. When you send a
message using Outlook Express, the SMTP server used is the default
mail account's server (IE4), or the SMTP server can be manually
selected in the "from" pop-down list containing all mail
accounts (IE5 or higher) and overrides the default mail server.
