Evolution lets you do this too... you could specify "servername:25" for the hostname, although I'm not sure exactly how it will behave in this case. It might try to first do SMTPS on port 25, fail, and then try SMTP+STARTTLS. -- Dan _______________________________________________ evolution maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/evolution
