If your customer is trying to check mail from an AOL account simply have them connect through AOL then minimize the window and open a standard IE or Netscape window and then check mail. AOL does not like port 8383 or 32000 so you will have to have your AOL clients to connect through that way.

AOL plays games with SMTP (and likely POP3) as well. The last time I checked, AOL would re-route SMTP packets from their intended destination to a proxy server at AOL, where they would store copies of the E-mail that was sent out. >AOL's customer support denies blocking ports 25 and 110. Is there >anything else that somebody can think of? Yes, AOL's customer support is totally clueless and is not telling you the truth. <G> -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
