to into the cf admin and click Mail Settings. In the mail server space, enter
user:[EMAIL PROTECTED] where "user" is the account username. my email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED] so my username would be "websitemaker" "password" is the account password in clear text "mail.mysite.com" is the name of the mail server you want to log into. Depending on your mail server this can be just an IP address, or it may need to be the domain name that the mail server's IP answers to (or one of them... exactly what depends on how you have set up dns). To add another ingredient into the pot: there's no law that says you have to use port 25, which is the standard smtp port but is also the one the spammers are trolling. You could adhere to standards (or rather, emerging ones) and use port 587, which appears destined to be reserved for auth'd smtp traffic and is that already for many mail admins. Or you could just pick a number. Only you, your mail server and CF will know... Set the port in CF and the mail server and they will communicate over that rather than port 25. -- --mattRobertson-- Janitor, MSB Web Systems mysecretbase.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
