HOW TO send e-mails from any address using Gmail’s SMTP server
A little while ago Lifehacker posted instruction how you could use Gmail’s SMTP server to send mail from any e-mail address.

By adapting the Wine compatibility layer for Windows, some enterprising developers have developed a method to run Windows programs under OS X for Intel. While porting Wine to OSx86 requires some serious tweaking (which still results in some unstable programs), work such as this opens a wide range of possibilities for the future. Since future versions of OS X will be built on the same Intel processors that Windows programs use, will we one day be able to use Windows apps as if they were native to OS X? [
