Dear Fary.

You've been a Member of this forum for long enough to know, that our Posting Guidelines don't allow double posting, never mind sextuple posts! (Windows Forum, Linux / Unix / BSD Forum, Misc Forum, Apache Forum, Ils Forum and here in the Networking Forum)

Therefore I am hereby giving you an official warning! If you continue like this, it could lead to a temporary ban.

In my opinion, the networking Forum is the right place for this question or maybe the Misc Forum, but none of the others. And if you're unsure where to post, choose one and add something like "I didn't know if I should post this here or in the Misc Forum, so if the mods think this is the wrong place, please move it."

The other posts will be deleted.

Also, writing complete sentences in capitals is not a good idea, as the Posting Guidelines state:

As you didn't write your complete post in capitals (and I can understand that you're angry about this issue), I'm not giving you a warning for that, but I'd ask you not to do it any more.

Greetings,

It's very unlikely (particularly nowadays) that you will find an SMTP service willing to send your stuff out without ANY authentication.

Sometimes (using an ASMTP service) you will be asked for an account and password. More frequently you will need to be coming from a specific range of IP addresses.

However, unless using web mail (which DOES set the From address for you), the From address is usually under the control of your email client. If using an email client, check how it's configured.

NB. Although it is common practice to use the same provider for both sending (SMTP) and receiving (POP3) emails, this is not generally necessary.

if you are going to send the mail through the email client like thunderbird , outlook first of all you have to configure the gmail account over there in your system.
and also the aol account on the same email client. and make the smtp for the aol and gmail account to the same smtp.gmail.com for both

if you find any queries mail me

[removed email]

I suggest a PM may be a more appropriate form of private communication within the site.

None that's likely to survive in today's environment. Did you read the comments in post #3?

Even though you have your own domain you still have an ISP that you connect through. You should be able to just use smtp.yourisp.com.

Bearing in mind the possible misuse of such information, can I ask that you explain WHY you need this before any further solutions or assistance is supplied.

That does not answer the question.

What possible use could you have for this apart from for malicious purposes?
