You probably are.

Try to persuade your ISP to allow SMTP after POP, i.e. they allow to send
via SMTP from any IP address for about let's say 30 minutes after a valid
POP3 access from just that address. We (I'm part of a 'hobby' ISP) just do
that and it's indepentant of any mail client, you just have to fetch mail
before you send the new ones out.

This is TMK a standard procedure and supportet by all (?) mail severs.

Good luck!
