I have a freeola email account and although I am able to receive emails without any problems on my mobile phone I am unable to reply to them as I do not have a Freeola connection on my mobile -
There is an option to pay £2.99 a month for the priveledge, however as a moneysaver i was hoping it is possible to avoid this charge.
Is there another smtp outgoing server i can use to reply back to using the same email address??

Something you might want to try:
If you have home broadband, check the email account settings to see if your ISP's outbound SMTP server requires authentication. If it does, you may be able to use it from your mobile (if not you probably won't as the server will probably reject anything not originating from one of their IP addresses).
Obviously you'll need to use the freeola address plus your broadband username and p/w in the auth fields when setting up your mobile's account details.0
