[G4] sending mail from OSX Mail App

[Jay Ruuska]

Probably you just need to make sure your sending prefs are set correctly.
Often when using a second provider for mail, as you described, you need to
have your e-mail client re-authenticate during the sending process. For
example, my SBC (AT&T) account needs "auth.smtp" as a prefix for sending.
Check with your e-mail account provider for this setting.
