How to send messages from my ITP from a differnet location

[ecksj]

I am in Az and have cox high speed internet. we are visiting our daughter in
NYC. cox does not serve NYC. I configured my laptop to use her ATT DSL
connection and everything works except one thing. I receive all my email
through outlook and can send out email messages as long as the address of the
recipient has a cox.net ending. any other ending such as qwest.net or
aol.com results in the following return error message:

"your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

Subject: test
Sent: 3/23/2006 4:33 PM

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:

John Doe on 3/23/2006 4:33 PM
550 relaying mail to mac.com is not allowed"

what do I have to do to correct this??

thanks

G'Day Ecksj,

I am not American, but I guess Cox is an ISP and ATT is a different ISP.

Each will have their own MailBox set for their own users.

My ISP in Australia is BigPond. If I go on holiday, and cannot find a phone
or cable connection to BigPond (and my MailBox) then I can NOT use my
default email client (Outlook 2003) for e-mail! End of story!

However BigPond also offers me WebMail - this is a (Web) page with it's
own URL that I open in my browser (IE). On that page I can login to my
BigPond MailBox, and (USING MY BROWSER) receive/read/send
email.

There are folders (Inbox/Sent Items) etc and I could (but don't) delete email.

When I can again connect to BigPond by cable, all the mail that I have
accumulated (received/read/sent) is copied doen to Outlook.

Does this help? Does Cox have WebMail?
