Please help an old codger here.

My phone settings for emails are OK incoming in that they come at home via my Mweb ADSL ( I think) and in my car via MTN.

However it seems I can only have one setting for outgoing mail? Got it set as MTN etc and can send from my car perfectly but cannot send emails from home? Seemed to work from home when set to Mweb etc.

On settings I see space for only one choice on "outgoing settings"

How do I get both to work if possible. i.e. send mail from home and in the car?

Thanks

This is because some/most ISP's lock their SMTP server to their own network. So you can only use their SMTP if on their network.
If you have your own domain, use your own smtp server, then you should be able to send from any network. If you don't have your own domain you will have to get an authenticated SMTP server from your ISP.
