Using Evolution with multiple SMTP servers

theufman · 11-28-2005, 11:06 PM

From my laptop, I am trying to use Evolution to get four different email accounts. I have two different smtp servers that I use, one at home and a different one at work. It seems that in order to send mail from each of these accounts, I would have to change each smtp server individually. This means I would have to change the smtp settings 8 times a day conceivably. Are there any ways to streamline this?

One solution is to create dummy accounts containing only the SMTP server and mail address, no incoming servers. While sending mail, simply choose sending from one of the dummy accounts containing the suitable SMTP. It is not very simple solution, but usable.
