So, I can receive e-mail but can't send. Any ideas?

I just started work in my new premises away from home. I'm on NTL at home, and I just unplugged my PC, took it to the office and connected to a network owned by my mate who's leasing me the office. I can receive e-mail to my ntlworld account without changing any settings, but I can't send. Anyone have any ideas why this would be so? Do I really have to connect via my cable modem at home to send e-mail.

Any ideas (and hopefully solutions) greatly appreciated.

Thanks guys. I feared as much.

There's nothing much to fear. Takes 10 seconds - as said, change it to the smtp server of the ISP you are using, and all will be well.

Thank you sir! Will try this as soon as I get back to the office.

Worked a treat. Had to obtain a username and password to use the smtp server, but then it worked fine. Thanks!
