What smtp server are you using and I assume you have no password for outgoing server?

Sending roadrunner email only works if you are connected via wifi where you have your roadrunner email account set up on your pc. It took me awhile to figure this out... I compose a message to send, then it finally sends when I m connected at home. I believe verizon.net and possible all pop email accounts do the same thing. If anyone knows a work-around so that you can send rr email when you are out and about, that would be great but as of yet, I haven't discovered any.

Am I understanding correctly... with K9 mail, I will be able to send email from my rr email account without having to wait until I'm at home wifi-ed into my server? Thank you, I m going to check that out now!
