Yes, ports 587 and 465 usually require authentication, but so do
some port 25 servers. So, saying "authenticated server" doesn't
limit it to non-25 ports.

By authenticated server, I mean one that uses a port other than 25...
If the servers use port 587 or 465, etc., don't they have to authenticate
the user?
Or am I using the incorrect terminology?

"So you need to find out if the work account has an authenticated SMTP
server"

Sorry, that won't help one bit if the OP's home ISP is blocking port 25.
Not even the authentication will be allowed to go through.

So you should be able to send using your Bellsouth/ATT accounts from
anywhere...
Apparently, the network at the hotel wasn't blocking access to any email
server.
Your home network appears to block your access to the work account SMTP
server.
So you need to find out if the work account has an authenticated SMTP
server,
or, as Gary suggested, you can setup a hybrid account (receiving from
your
work POP server and sending via your Bellsouth server).

Unfortunately (or, fortunately, I guess), I'm already using
authenticated
SMTP for both accounts. In fact, authenticated is required for both.
Hotel
used a another ISP. I don't remember the provider at the Marriott
Courtyard
name but I think it started with "N...". Either way, that wouldn't
explain
the business e-mail which was accessible (for sending) at the hotel but
not
at home.

Thanks, though.

It appears that Bellsouth/ATT offers authenticated SMTP....

Further clarification: I just realized only the incoming is POP3.
The
outgoing is still SMTP. Both work and home are POP3 accounts
(apparently
only for incoming). Since both are POP3, they should have the same
access
regardless of where I am, right? However, I can't send from the home
address
at work and I can't send from the work address at home. I can,
however,
apparently send from both in a hotel room in another state.

What you experienced is normal. As a general rule, the owner of
the SMTP server must be the same as the one providing your Internet
connection at that moment. For more on this see
http://www.postcastserver.com/help/Port_25_Blocking.aspx

The available workarounds when sending away from home are as
follows:

1. Use webmail for sending (via your browser).
2. Ask your home ISP if they have a port other than '25' for SMTP.
3. If you use the same away-from-home connection frequently,
substitute
the SMTP
server belonging to that connection. This is a bit tricky, but if
you
want to go that route,
I can provide more details.
4. If you frequently send from multiple locations, get a free Gmail
account,
configure it for POP access, and use it for your sending chores.
Gmail uses port 465 for SMTP, which is not blocked like port 25 is.

I have the same problems my work and home accounts. Both are POP3
accounts.
Work is very loosely organized so there's no network firewall or
e-mail
server that could be causing the problem. Basically, I can't send
e-mails
from the work account while I'm at home AND I can't send e-mails
from
the
home account while I'm at work. When I try either situation, I
get
the
same
error as "iccorrea".

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'whack', Account:
'*****
*****(Home)', Server: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port:
25,
Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Two weeks ago, I was in a hotel in TX and had no problems
sending/receiving
from either account. On that note, "Receiving" always seems to
work.
It's
only the sending that seems to choke.
