outbound server selection

[ligander]

I use TDS.net at home and need to send mail from my work account. However, TDS.net does not allow forwarding of email...so everytime I want to send an email from my work account at home...i have to wait for an error message to select a different server. I then select the TDS server and it goes through. The problem is that I have to do this for each message. Is there anyway to tell the Mail.app that when I am at home to use the TDS server only as the outgoing server?

Please help!

What if you made two different accounts - "Work" and "Work (from home)" - make the two accounts identical, except the outgoing mail servers different.

Just a thought...

Thanks. If I'm interpreting your suggestion correctly, that would probably work except it would use twice the amount of space for the email storage and I would have to keep up with two accounts for sent mail. I think at least.
