Solve : Sending email using Microsoft Outlook?

Answer»

I have a problem setting up my laptop to send and receive mail and while traveling using other WiFi networks. I use Netzero as my email "home" and Internet service is via DSL from a local PROVIDER. While traveling I use any WiFi connection that is available. All networks that I have used while away from home ALLOW me to use the Netzero server for both incoming and outgoing email transmissions. At home I receive incoming Email from/through the Netzero server. For sending out Email (while at home) I have to use the SMTP address of my Internet provider. So to travel I either have to use a different computer or reset the SMTP "path" for outgoing email through Netzero.
My question: Is their a way to setup two different "paths" for out going email on the same computer? One other possibility, could I use Microsoft Outlook for the "home location" and Outlook Express while traveling. Otherwise I have to use one computer for home service and another computer for traveling.
Any solutions to this problem would be appreciated. My OS is Windows XP and email software is Outlook 2003.You can set up a second account in Outlook with a different email address and Netzero for outgoing. Then you can either check incoming email for both addresses or simply alias the second address to the first so all incoming email for either address goes to your primary.Quote

I use Netzero as my email "home" and Internet service is via DSL from a local provider.
Why do this? Why use Netzero when you have DSL. Why don't you just use your DSL ISP for your email address? Another email address is not an option as the Netzero address is an ID that is used for several entities that I don't won't to change. I'm just looking for a technical answer for my ORIGINAL question and it sounds like there might not be an easy way to solve the problem. Thanks to anyone that has any IDEAS.
