Accessing one email address on 3 different ISP'S
 

My wife is using TBird 1.5.0.5 on her laptop. She needs to access her
work email from 3 locations, her local workplace, an out of town
workplace, & our home. I'm having trouble because none of the 3 ISP's
allow users to access their SMTP server from another ISP. So for
example, if the SMTP is set to her local workplace, she is not able to
access it from home, & vice versa. Same with the 3rd location. What
are the options here? Tried using her gmail account (as related here in
another thread), but all replies to the mail she sends with this setup
come to the gmail account. Any suggestions appreciated.

Does her ISP have a web interface to their eMail? Mine does, and I use that
instead of T-Bird when I'm not at home.

Thanks for the reply. It does, but they delete messages after about 3
weeks, and she needs access to a year or more. I was able to set up
gmail using the settings on their web site to do what I needed,
basically adding her non-gmail accounts & setting each with its own
address as "reply to".
