    What he said :p

    Hotmail doesn't, unless you pay for the privilege, which i'd rather not do.

    You can't do it with hotmail so far as i'm aware.

    With Yahoo or Tiscali you need to find your SMTP server address for each of them, and know your Username and Password for their services and put them in there.

    Ok so for Yahoo! it's:

    Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
    ID: Your Yahoo! ID (your email address without the "@yahoo.com")
    Password: Your Yahoo! password

    Plus there's all this stuff about sending emails with Yahoo

    And for Tiscali:

    Server: smtp.tiscali.co.uk
    ID: Your Tiscali username
    Password: Your Tiscali password

    Maybe more help about Tiscali here

    That help?

    Not 100% sure, but I think you can't do this with yahoo unless you pay for it.

    What program are you using Blah? As far as I know it's possible to do that with hotmail (although I still don't understand why anyone would use hotmail in this day) but only if you're using outlook express or outlook.
