1. Go to '''Tools > Account Settings'''.<br/>
2. Select the account that you wish to modify:<br/>
Click the plus sign (+) or arrow on the left to drop down a list below the account.<br/>
3. Select '''Server Settings'''.<br/>
4. Click the '''Adanced''' button.<br/>

Observations: <br/>
1) With my version 1.5.0.4, I'm unable to get past step 4 above.  When I click the Advanced button, the window that pops up asks me to select a folder for new mail.  There's no drop-down list in which to select an SMTP server.<br/>
2) There is a drop-down list for '''Outgoing Server (SMTP)''' in the screen that appears when you click the account name.  However, it only allows you to select from existing servers, not add a new one.<br/>
<br/>
