Usually you cannot use your 'private' email setup when you are responding via an 'external' wifi-router.
You may receive emails but you cannot respond.
The reason is, that you have to specify the name of the SMTP server for the outgoing post, which almost certainly differs from your 'private' servername.
The name and password may be provided to you by the administration of the 'external' system, hence the name: systemadministrator.

One solution may be to use a webbased email provider eg. gmail.com.
Here the servernames are fixed despite your physical location.
From a webbased email system your emails may be redirected to your 'private' system and usually you will not note a significant difference.

My answer became a bit technical but I hope the conclusion is clear :-)
