Er. Is she running a mailing list or something? This is odd, as I

Either of these. Just remember that if you sign up with a hosting
service that allows you to send unlimited amounts of mail, you'll
probably be cheek by jowl with evil spammers.

Find your mail client and change the SMTP settings to whatever you
