Many people use laptops these days. They’re getting really cheap. The smaller, “netbooks” are also something very popular since they’re easier to use than your phone and are still small enough to carry just about anywhere. We’re a lot more mobile these days and some people can do their work from just about anywhere.

One problem with being so mobile is sending email. You can easily get email on your laptop or netbook but being able to send can be pretty tricky. The outgoing mail server is called your SMTP server. SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. What that means is it’s a server that can send email. You need one in order to send email to someone else.

Usually, whatever network you are currently on has an SMTP server you can use. This works fine when you are at home or at the office but how in the world are you supposed to find out which SMTP server to use when you’re at the coffee shop using a wireless connection or on someone else’s network? There’s no real way to know and even if you do know, you might need an account with that provider to even use it.

So what can help you in this situation is to get your own SMTP service that you can use from anywhere. As long as you’re connected online, you’ll be able to connect to that outgoing mail SMTP server and use it. There is no need to keep changing your email settings. You just always use that one and you’re all set.

One such outbound SMTP service provider is called SMTP2Go. You can sign up for personal or corporate accounts. Their fees are low and they provide reliable outgoing mail SMTP server services for you. I use them myself since I use my laptop all the time. Some points:
