Can I take a guess that you were trying to run a regular copy of emailer at the same time as the SMTP Auth version? You can only have one copy of Emailer running per set of Emailer Files (and prefs). So if you were trying to run two different copies, yet share the same prefs or database, that would definitly fail. Also, I see you are using an email address that is not traditionally US based (.ar TLD). If you were previously running an International version of Emailer, I have no idea what if any errors the SMTP Auth version might issue when it first tries to run. It was based on the 2.0v3 US English PPC Only version... so if you tried to mix and match with anything else, I don't know what (if any) problems might appear. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
