Quick Outlook Question
I've got a co-worker trying to setup and executive's Outlook to connect to an additional POP3 account. My dumb question is the outgoing SMTP field, what should that be? My outgoing mail server, or the smtp server where the POP3 mail is at? -- Sherry Abercrombie Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Arthur C.

Re: Quick Outlook Question
Your outgoing mail server more than likely, otherwise he could be considered to be relaying. IIRC, if you configure a secure smtp session with the server with his credentials he won't be relaying, but using your outgoing server is probably the simplest option.

Re: Quick Outlook Question
Blocking port 25 outbound is not 'arbitrary' - it's 'egress filtering'. And, it's highly recommended. I'd think serious about doing what you're doing, and would likely require they gave me a written and signed request, which had been passed by the org's lawyer. Nasty things happen when kludges like this are put together, and my basic rule is that personal and corporate email don't mix - assuming that this is for a personal account. Even if it's not personal, mixing two [probably-]unrelated business' email is problematic.
