You can define multiple SMTP servers and choose which one to use. That's separate from the account configuration. There are probably plugins that make it easy to change. s/ On 12 Aug 2011 19:18, "Barry Drake" wrote: > Overall, I'm pleased that the next release goes back to Thunderbird - I > think

I was wondering if anyone here has a spare - or knows where I can get, a cheap AM3-socket processor? Mine recently gave up the ghost and I don't have much money to replace it until the end of September, so I figured it was worth asking here first. I currently have a netbook (with Windows XP - ugh)
