+ directory.</li>
+ <li>Enter the name of your outgoing mail server (SMTP).
+
+ <p><strong>Note</strong>: You need to specify only one outgoing mail
+ server (SMTP), even if you have several mail accounts. The name of
+ your <a href="glossary.xhtml#smtp">SMTP</a> host may not have been
+ explicitly listed in the account setup information provided to you.
+ For example, your SMTP host may be the same as your POP or IMAP host.
