If I'm not mistaken, most ISP's only allow IP addresses on their network
send mail through their mail servers. If your trying to use a mail server
with an ISP that's different than the one your connected to, you might try
using the smtp server of the ISP you connect through, and use the mail
server you actually want to get mail from as your inbound mail server.
