There is an alternative - a while ago I found a utility to run a local SMTP server on your PC - advantage is that you aren't reliant on NTL's, disadvantage is that if the recipient's POP server is not accessible, it won't auto-retry like an ISPs SMTP server will. I can't remember what the one I tried was called, but there is more than one out there.
