Bill,
I really don't understand what you mean here. When I send an email with
Mailmate, it grabs the SMTP server from my old Tuffmail account, even if
it's offline. But all my mail is coming to my Fastmail account. What
would be wrong with putting my Fastmail SMTP server in my Tuffmail
account setup? I never CHOOSE an act to send from. I just tell Mailmate
to do a New Message.
