The first thing to do is change your Email Account field so it is entered as per the SBC setup. That is, change the % to @ so you will have '[EMAIL PROTECTED]@pop.yahoo.com' or whatever the correct info is (just change the % to @ leave the rest alone). Also, make sure you have the correct SMTP Server entered. Some ISPs use a different SMTP server for authenticated email. Check SBC's help pages. See what they say to use for Outlook 5.2, and use that. Of course, this all assumes you are running the SMTP hacked version of Emailer and not the original version of Emailer. >If we choose to migrate with OS 9 and Text email in mind (don't want >html), would you say Entourage is okay?

I think all the other main stream ones are HTML email (or at least any version you can easily lay your hands on, old versions of Eudora and Outlook are likely Text only). -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
