An SMTP Server for Travelers with a Laptop or PDA

Every day, thousands of travelers all over the world attempt the seemingly simple task of sending an email from their laptop or PDA. Surprisingly, few succeed. The reason is simple – their SMTP server (outgoing mail server) simply does not work when they are away from home. In fact, almost all SMTP servers are designed so that they reject all attempts to send emails by anyone who is not connected to the Internet through the particular ISP who runs the SMTP server. The cryptic error message received simply states ‘ relaying is not allowed’ . All this basically means is that people find that they simply cannot send email.

The solution to this email problem, which has plagued almost every laptop or PDA user, is easy. Simply find an SMTP server that allows you to send from anywhere in the world, no matter who you are actually connected to the Internet through. Better yet, find such an SMTP server that is also open on more ports than just the standard (port 25), just in case that port gets blocked by your current network.

SMTP2Go provides such an SMTP server – one that can safely and easily be used from any location. The old solution of trying to find a local SMTP server that will work in your current location (wherever you happen to turn up) can quickly turn into an infuriating, and in many cases impossible, task. SMTP2Go is perfect for people who are on the go, providing accessibility at home, work, or while traveling to different cities or countries. In fact, travelers often wonder how they actually managed at all before switching to using SMTP2Go.

SMTP2Go has become recognized as the most affordable service of its kind on the Internet (SMTP2Go plans start at under $2 per month) There are no recurring charges of any kind, and all plans last a full year. Different plans are available which are designed for different levels of volume - see How It Works for specific details on plans.

As founder of SMTP2Go, living in New Zealand, and regularly traveling through different countries including Argentina, the USA, Canada, Great Britain, Australia and South-East Asia, I have become acutely aware of just how annoying the lack of a functioning SMTP server really can be. Whether I was in a hotel, Internet cafe, airport or other wireless network, I was always presented with the same problem - I couldn't send emails. This is why I decided to put an end to the frustration once and for all, and design a server that will work from anywhere.

A reliable, remote SMTP server (that works) really is an essential tool for every traveler with a laptop or PDA. SMTP2Go is guaranteed to work with any existing email software including Outlook, Outlook Express, Thunderbird, Eudora, Apple Mail and Entourage.
