I have an email account that I can't trick Emailer into accessing :-(.  
Hope someone has found a trick.  The problem is that Emailer never 
explicitly asks you for the name of the pop server... it assumes it can 
form it from the account name you supply.

Emailer seems to think that your email account is always of the form 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the pop server being pop.somedomain.com, so you 
put in [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the account and it gets both the pop 
server and your account name an one swell foop... except when it doesn't 
:-(

I have an email account "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" with both the pop and smtp 
servers named "mail.mymailserver.com"

Using Emailer's logic, my "account" should be 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]@mail.myserver.com.  Of course it chokes on that :-)

There is no pop server named "pop.mydomain.com" and no user account named 
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]", so it doesn't seem possible to access this 
account with emailer.  I should note that Outlook Express has no problem 
at all since it asks you for your account and your pop server 
independently.

Surely someone else has run across this problem and solved it?

Thanks,

Steve
