Hi - How do I set up my talktalk email to send from another email address (another domain)?

Thank you,

smtp.talktalk.net port 25 with no authentication. Will only work whilst connected to the TalkTalk network.

Thanks Oliver for the info. But how do I actually set it up? I'm afraid I have no idea how to go about it. Any help would be welcome.

Many thanks,

Just change your email addy from the existing one to the other one you want and leave everything else unchanged. It doesn't matter what email addy you say you are sending from. You can even set up 2 almost identical a/c's in your mail client.

OR smtp.talktalk.net port 587 Authenticated by your TT email username/pwd. Will work over any network.

But smtp.talktalk.net port 587 insists that the From address matches the SMTP auth login, so that would be no good for what the OP wants to do.

Unless the "Reply to" field will be sufficient for his purpose?

Ah, OK. That's unlike EE's Port 587 SMTP which will send from any email addy as long as you authenticate it with your own email addy. Are you sure that's not sufficient?

That's a pretty ugly solution since the "from" address will be some irrelevant TalkTalk address. The port 25 solution I gave will work better, assuming "roaming" is not required.
