In Reply to: outgoing email server posted by Bintang girl on Tuesday, 14. October 2014 at 08:57 Bali Time:
Internet Service Providers usually only accept traffic to their smtp (MAIL) server from their own network. For example at home if your service provider is Optus then you connect to their network and you use their Mail server eg mambolib@optus.net.au
When your connect to a Wifi network away from your home your are trying to send email from an Optus account (@optus.net.au ) via another local Internet service provider and get blocked because you came from outside of Optus's network. You can receive Mail but cannot send. They do this in order to stop unsolicited spammers from using their smtp server to send spam mail.
Note if your accessing the internet via local mobile network (data SIM on your tablet) this will work ok .
There are a couple of ways to get around this , most service providers have a webmail available, that is you don't use an mail application like Outlook on your laptop/tablet but logon to your service provider mail service via their webpage.
The other option is to create an account like gmail or hotmail , I find that these don't have the same issues as they expect that your coming from another service provider.
Hope this makes sense
