Outlook 2007 - Sending Emails

B

bware

We utilize Microsoft Outlook 2007 at the office and have no problems sending
or receiving emails from our wireless network, yet when any of us try to send
an email from home (using our laptops) it will only receive emails, it will
not allow us to send. If we use a wireless device (sprint card) it will
allow us to send and receive, just not once we our connected to our home
networks. Can anyone advise?

Thanks

Most mail providers won't allow you to send messages via their SMTP server
when you're connected to someone else's network. It's called relaying. You
must either use the SMTP server that matches the domain of the mail address
you're using, the network to which you're attached, or you must properly
authenicate to the outgoing server using the credentials the SMTP server
expects.
