I'm guessing OldGuy's concern is that GMail's SMTP server replaces the
 From address of any mail sent through it with the GMail address used to
authenticate with the server. So:
- Read an email sent to Hotmail account.
- Reply; SeaMonkey sets the From: address to the Hotmail account.
- Send through GMail's SMTP server.
- GMail rewrites the From: address to the GMail address.
- Recipient sees the email as coming from the GMail address, not the
Hotmail address.

You're supposed to be able to add other addresses to your GMail
account and then be able to send from those without this happening,
but I've never got that to work.

Interesting theory. I have a Gmail account, but have never set up a Gmail SMTP server -- I just use one of my other SMTP servers. (since I despise webmail, I access Gmail via POP like my other accounts) I didn't even know Gmail /had/ an SMTP server until now.

smtp.gmail.com
Port: 465
Connection security: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Normal password
UserName: <the string before the @ of your Gmail adress>
