Can't say's I do, but maybe try setting the SMTP properties to the 
outgoing server that she has to send through and set that as the default 
outgoing server.

Yep. Pegasus mail can, and then some. I use it to retreive e-mail from 
several account (including listmaster at databaseadvisors.com) and send via 
my ISP only, since they block all smtp traffic, except to their server. 
So all of my accounts come from their various servers, but all go out via 
my ISPs servers.
