(actually, "send" is not the correct word... "relay" is... as you send the email to the ISP who relays it on)<br /><br />You can get around this problem using something like "Mail Direct" that allows you to send mail directly, but THAT doesn't always work either, as many receiving ISP's will not accept email directly from broadband accounts! (another anti-spam measure).<br /><br />The same problems exist trying to send emails from your iPhone.<br /><br />Generally, the only guaranteed place you can send SMTP email is from home, using your own ISP.<br /><br /><br />Now you can see why so many people use webmail!Paul Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11572465970221569205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6673524461496506133.post-50459165906825694742009-09-15T22:09:26.249+01:002009-09-15T22:09:26.249+01:00I was also going to suggest using Google Apps to s...I was also going to suggest using Google Apps to send your email and purchasing/transferring your domain name using eg 123-reg (http://www.123-reg.co.uk/order?domain=www.bex-lewis.co.uk&search=search&transfer=transfer&ajax_enabled=true). If you can get hold of your domain name, Google Apps is a great way to send emails from this domain and it integrates really well into all the usual mail applications through IMAP. Google Apps would also enable you to send emails using your iPhone. In terms of hosting, I'm afraid I don't have much experience in that area.Graceful Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01081828789953769908noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6673524461496506133.post-54624654659631545432009-09-15T19:58:37.061+01:002009-09-15T19:58:37.061+01:00well you can send emails as that domain name from ...well you can send emails as that domain name from within gmail... of that's what you need to do.
