I'm on MindSpring, which was absorbed by EarthLink a few years back.
My actual ISP is Cablespeed.com, and I regularly use my Cablespeed
account to send MindSpring e-mail. I just have the MindSpring account
to use the CableSpeed SMTP server for outgoing mail.
Bearing in mind that I have not set up SimpleMail as yet, perhaps
checking the account preferences might yield something ...(?).
