I forward my university email address to my GMail account, so I don’t have my university IMAP set up as an account on my iPad (and I don’t want to, because then I’d receive those mails twice). Still, I want to send email using that address, via my university’s SMTP server.
- Is there any way to add another sender address to an account and assign it a different SMTP server than the account’s default SMTP in the iPad’s email client?
- If not, can you recommend another email client for the iPad that has this capability?

Configuring additional outgoing mail servers
from the Apple support websites has detail instructions:
Go to Settings → Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
Tap the Mail account for which you would like to change the settings.
If your account is configured to sync Notes or other items, you may need to tap Account Info on the following screen as well.
On the Account Info screen, locate the Outgoing Mail Server section and tap the existing SMTP entry.
A list of SMTP servers will appear, with the Primary Server and then Other SMTP Servers. Go to Other SMTP servers → Add Server....
Enter the additional SMTP server information. Host Name is required.
Tap Save.
