SMTP
December 9th, 2007 at 7:05am
A SMTP server that allows sending anonymous email messages. It removes or changes the “From” field of all messages that it processes.
Most e-mail systems that send mail over the Internet use SMTP to send messages from one server to another; the messages can then be retrieved with an e-mail client using either POP or IMAP.
In addition, SMTP is generally used to send messages from a mail client to a mail server. This is why you need to specify both the POP or IMAP server and the SMTP server when you configure your e-mail application.
