Default SMTP server when two e-mail accounts

I have a bunch of users each with an Exchange account and a POP3 account. I
was under the impression that which account Outlook would use for its SMTP
server depended on which account is made the "default" account. But, I find
that this is not the case.

In general, when there are multiple e-mail accounts which one is used for
SMTP service?

Thanks much for any help here.

David

Which version of Outlook? Outlook 2002/2003 uses the account selected for
sending andreplis go out on the same account as they arrived on. Older
versions tend to use Exchange when it's in the profile.
