To me it seems like you are assuming that mails _from_ you have to go the same way like mails _to_ you. That is not the case! An SMTP-Relay-Server may be located somewhere in the Internet, you just need to be able to relay over it. Exim calls this a Smarthost and asks you after installation if you have one. Usually your ISP has one and so you can relay mails over this server. So it is possible to receive mails from POP3-Server A and send mails over SMTP-Server B. Phil
