Earlier in this thread someone suggested he set up his mail client to log into smtp.mac.com to send mail. It was pointed out that he can't do this with earthlink, but no explanation was given. Somebody else said "Yes he could" so I posted the explanation of why he couldn't. It had already been pointed out that he could continue to send mail through earthlink, and he already had the information for collecting from mac.com, so I didn't bother addressing other methods of getting the mail. -- Barry -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To search the archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
