How can I change the SMTP server to any server I want to?

This is a common situation, and I have seen many others ask a similar question. It is a simple question, but Thunderbird does not seem to allow it. In my case, I have a choice of two mail server outgoing. I can use my hosting company Godaddy or my Internet provider, the local cable operator Charter Web. By default, Tbird uses the same mailserver incoming and outgoing, if possible, so my e-mail account has been configured to use the outgoing Godaddy server.

I would prefer, however, to use the local server SMTP of Charter. But I can't find any way to change to that of Tbird. I could do it in Outlook Express, because both servers are listed for each e-mail account and can be changed.

In Tbird, there is a drop down menu to choose an outgoing server, with no way to simply type in a new server. Or am I missing something? I think not, because others report the same problem. I have vague memories that awhile back, Tbird would you allow to specify all server to an e-mail account settings and then test their validity before finishing - a manual of against an automated way to set up an account.

The main thing is I want to review the outgoing server of what I want, but it doesn't seem to be a way to do it.

When your problem has been fixed can you mark the thread as "solved" Please?
Thank you.

  • How can I change the domain to a server of comment?

    Acrobat 9 on Windows 7

    In addition to editing the registry, how can I change the URL of a comment server which I use for exams?

    Earlier, I initiated a shared review but used only the host name of the server, not the fully qualified name (FQN) which includes the full domain name. Now, when I reuse this server for other comments that I initiate, I'm stuck with the unqualified name. People outside of my subnet cannot post comments on the server because the simple host name is not known on their subnet.

    How can I change the properties of this server so clients use the FQN?

    Jerry

    Yes, you can change the server name in the registry. After change, all the comments that you initiate with this profile will point to the new server location.

  • How can I change the license to another host?

    Hello

    I am replacing a host, but cannot change the license to the new host.

    The ability to change the license on the vCenter (administration, licenses, manage vsphere licenses) appears dimmed (unavailable).

    All the licenses that I own are associated with former guests. I can't add new hosts because all licenses associated with the former hosts. I removed the host the vCenter, but the license is always affected.

    How can I change the license of a former host (which no longer use) by the new host?

    Thank you!

    As mentioned earlier, it should actually take a few minutes, so with the two days, you've already waited, there seems to be something wrong. Please take a look at KB VMware: vCenter Server 6.0 incorrectly states the amount of licenses in use by the ESXi host to see if this helps you to identify/solve the problem. In the case where you don't consider opening a case of pension with VMware.

  • Response of local folders looks like the answer to the discussion group. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly?

    Please see image attached. Responses from the eyes of local folders as responses to the discussion groups. No signature or formatting options. How can I change the local folders meets regularly, as they are in the Inbox?

    I don't think that the format of replies to the messages in the local folders are linked with focus groups or to individual account settings. As local folders can contain messages between several accounts or identities, it is more likely that formatting uses the setting of the account or identity appearing in the: field when you reply.

    This is how I think it should work. How this works in practice may be different.
