1. SMTP is used in the mail protcol address. The Internet server AOL Earthlink Rogers and Bell are IP servers. The SMPT address is part of their outgoing mail address. They usually give you the POP address and the SMPT address as follows pop.server.com and smtp.server.com. All other use of SMPT really don't count as your server is the master.
