I'd like to set up Thunderbird to be able to send messages via an SMTP server, but I don't want to actually download any messages from a POP3 or IMAP account to Thunderbird's local storage. Is there any way to get Thunderbird to send messages without creating an incoming account? Currently, I'm unable to use the Write/Send features if I just have an outgoing server set up, but no incoming account.

Try creating a Linux mailspool account. Or a bogus POP3/IMAP account. | |||

No, but you can build an account with false POP credentials. It will fail when checking mail, but (depending on your SMTP server's configuration) you should be able to send mail. | |||

No.As far as I know, you need to setup and account in order to send mail from it. | |||
