i guess i should of been more specific :) sendmail sends mail but also receieves mail from other SMTP servers..and from email clients, but email clients reading mail use POP3/IMAP/POP2..there is no way to login to a SMTP server and "get" mail. nate ----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- Vice President Network Operations http://www.firetrail.com/ Firetrail Internet Services Limited http://www.aphroland.org/ Everett, WA 425-348-7336 http://www.linuxpowered.net/ Powered By: http://comedy.aphroland.org/ Debian 2.1 Linux 2.0.36 SMP http://yahoo.aphroland.org/ -----------------------------------------[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]-- 7:06am up 125 days, 18:57, 4 users, load average: 1.85, 1.70, 1.71
