As told by The Unknown, change your email address in account properties
To make you PC smtp, search google for smtp servers, there are many softwares download and install. Your PC will work as SMTP. In SMTP field of your outlook express use localhost.

You can send emails from your PC, but chances are your email will be either rejected by other servers or will go in spam folder because of strong spam filters many webmail provider use.

However there are another methods through which you can increase the probability of reaching email to inbox.

Another method is signup for a POP/SMTP mail service (like Gmail) and set any fake email address. Send email!

how to setup fake email address in gmail? don need to activate it?
Yes, you can not send email from fake id, using gmail or many other smtp servers. You have to prove tht you are owner of tht id in gmail. In other smtp server they relay email from approved id only.

Are baba!! In the email account properties, a field titled "Email Address" is there where you can set your desired fake email address!

See this image:

In this image, The_Unknown@thinkdigit.com is an invalid email address. If i send an mail to someone, the mail will be sent by The_Unknown@thinkdigit.com !
