 This method requires you to configure your Mail Sender in VPOP3 to use 'MX Sending'. This method usually sends mail directly to the recipients' mail servers, without going through your ISP, and is normally only recommended if you have a leased line or your VPOP3 server is hosted in a data centre because recipients will often block mail from ADSL/Cable connections. However, the method shown in this article 'tricks' VPOP3 into sending via your ISP's relay servers instead of directly to the recipient. This method requires you to configure your Mail Sender in VPOP3 to use 'MX Sending'.

 +====Specify accounts in the Overrides====
 +
 +In the **Edit SMTP Direct DNS Overrides** box, enter rules to tell VPOP3 where to send messages depending on the sender. The example below assumes you are using SMTP Authentication so that VPOP3 knows which user is sending which messages.
 +
 +For example
 +
 +''* joe:joepasswd@smtp.myisp.com $authsender=joe\\
 +* bob:bobpasswd@smtp.myisp.com $authsender=bob\\
 +* default:defaultpasswd@smtp.myisp.com''
 +
 +This tells VPOP3 to send messages for any destinations (the '*' at the start of the line) through 'smtp.myisp.com' with the login details //joe// & //joepasswd// if the authenticated sender for the messages was 'joe'
 +
 +Then, again, the same with messages sent by 'bob', but using //bob// & //bobpasswd// as the ISP login details
 +
 +Then, any messages which weren't matched by the previous rules are sent using the //default// and //defaultpasswd// ISP login details.

 +
 +Press 'Save' to save the DNS overrides, and VPOP3 should send different users' messages as you've defined.
