MarcoPolo CommentaryFix a broken thunderbird? - Version: 2.5, 6/3/2009 05:16PM PST

MyScreenName99
I have a laptop that I carry around from home to work.
I use Thunderbird Email Client.
Depending on where I am the outgoing smtp server is different.
I can't use the SMTP server of work when I'm home and vise versa.
If I had a third smtp server i might get lucky that it would work in
either location, but no.. not me.

So eventually I change location and I have to change thunderbird's
outgoing smtp server settings... Usually after try to send and get a
message saying I can't connect to the smtp server....
Once for each account.... :(

So when I log is is there a way for the os to know where I am and
tweak these minor differences somehow?
I see under system prefrences, network, locations... but I'm not sure
that take me far enough.. It doesn't setup outgoing smtp
configurations...

From what I hear MarcoPolo might help me.

MarcoPolo ReviewFantastic Utility! - Version: 2.3, 10/6/2007 11:56PM PST

I have been using MarcoPolo for about 4 or 5 months now and I absolutely love it. It makes handling moving from one network to another an absolute breeze and completely automatic. It automatically changes between my wifi networks and my 3G wlan card when I insert the card. It includes things like changing SMTP servers for different networks which network locations does not do. I highly recomend this utility for laptop users.

MarcoPolo ReviewI am delighted with MarcoPolo - Version: 2.2, 10/1/2007 03:13PM PST

because it does exactly what it says it will do. I set it up to switch location and default printer based on the IP address and I now don't give it a thought because it all just happens automatically. And you can't beat the price :)

Had to go to the developer's site to find out what this app *really* does...sure wasn't apparent to me (at least) from the description. And I certainly wasn't thrilled when the description touted the fact that the app would be performing "arbitrary actions" on my install!!
