I never take Airtel to be a serious provider in all aspects. Even simple things! On 7 May 2013 09:07, Charles Murithi <ckmurithi@gmail.com> wrote:
I noted this ...when you send an email it is registered as From the Gmail Address listed under Require sign-in. Dont Airtel have a way to go around this the Safaricom SMTP servers work just fine .

The only issue I know with gmail smtp servers is that if your address is me@odhiambo.me and I use them, they will rewrite the mail from: headers to read the e-mail address with which I authenticated, e.g. odhiambo@gmail.com. Well, it's quite some days since I checked that. Maybe things changed!

If your tablet supports ASMTP (A=Authenticated), then just use smtp.gmail.com. You can find the configs online.

Thank you for the response , i tried that with Port 25 and the Emails register as sent on the Tablet , however they are not being delivered to the recipient addresses.
I sent tests to Gmail & a private domain and the emails weren't delivered.

So, forget traceroute. Just configure whatever to use that server on port 25.
