This is a perfect description - tank you Daniel!

Remote Support option I've never used it - but reading the docs looks like a different intended application. webadmin is for trusted sysadmins who have direct network access. Remote support gives temporary connectivity via the SMTP port - so if the remote send mail to/through ASSP it can perform admin functions without requiring routing changes or needing to grant the remote IP access to ASSP followed by removing access afterwards. Actually looks like a very nice feature - allows a network admin to deploy ASSP at various sites, and have remote admins grant temporary access for maintenance without requiring constant firewall access. -- Daniel ------ Original Message ------ From: "K Post" <nntp.p...@gmail.com> To: "Daniel Miller" <dmil...@amfes.com>; "ASSP development mailing list" <assp-test@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: 2/10/2015 2:21:31 PM Subject: Re: [Assp-test] Huh?
