Hi , thanks, I'll take care about the AUTH port and try that
nslookup-thing.

For mail receiving I was working with a mailhost supporting the
imap-protocol. There you got all the possibilities (selecting mail,
moving it to other folders and so on), with the pop3-protocol it's no
fun (..but you can receive mail).
For mail sending you need to know someting about MIME-Types and how to
build up a correct message (-> using javax activation framework). This
you have to find out for yourself (if you're not an expert already).
The demos were working at once, everything well documentated. At the
mailing list the developpers are responding to any question unanswered.
There were critical voices, which find some method call unelegant or
unnecessary, - may be or not : personally I would consider to implement
the protocols myself only in case of simple text messages.
With adding a mail client to existing applications/browsers I've got no
experience, but obviously it's done (except Netscape's not working with
javamail).
A javamail enthousiast ;-)
