That's correct. Any account using the Exchange-based accounts will be sent through the Exchange server. There is no "outgoing" server option (for that matter, there's no "incoming" server option...it's all Exchange).
If you are unable to send mail via Exchange, it could be an authentication issue. There's generally two, one for incoming and one for outgoing (it'll ask you to authenticate when you click "Send"). If you check the "Remember password" box before you enter that outgoing authentication, it should work from then on.
Yes, it did prompt me for a password for permission to enter and scan my exchange account folders, and yes, I was prompted for a password when replying to a message or sending a new message and I did fire off a test message, watched it zip through "On This Computer"->outbox, but then nothing happened. The message was never delivered.
I tried to look at the exchange logs to see if there was "permissions denied" or even for a delivery attempt but gave up because I couldn't remember how to find the logs.
Any suggestions would be appreciated perhaps a howto link or something?
Thanks Dan
