Regardless of whatever email client software you use, it would be impossible to send anything through "smtp.myrealbox.com" without logging onto the pop3 server first. Pop before smtp is a common authentication protocol used for many email services. > Hey, Folks; > With my local ISP a new install of Nettamer will always let me send SMTP > but not download POP3 until I have sent a few emails out.

Maybe myrealbox.com works the same way with Nettamer. No, you got it bass ackwards. At "myrealbox.com" you must do pop before smtp, regardless of whatever email client software you use. I have never heard of any email service anywhere that would have you to do it the other way around. That wouldn't make sense. <snip> Sam Heywood -- This mail was written by user of The Arachne Browser - http://arachne.cz/
