Help with multiple outgoing servers in mail

[Andy Fragen]

Far and away the simplest solution is just to activate Postifx in your
Panther install.

Postfix Enabler is the way to go. <http://www.roadstead.com/weblog/

After setting this up and changing the settings on you email smtp server
to 127.0.0.1 you're good to go. Never a need to change again. All you
need is an active net connection to send mail. BTW, it's much faster for
sending large attachments.
