Each account has its own exclusive SMTP Server settings. This is good 
because on the modern Internet, it is not feasible to send mail claiming 
to be from a particular address through any arbitrarily chosen mail 
server. It might work, but more likely your mail would be rejected or 
worse: dropped silently.
