That's a very good point; if I use a different IP for each proxy, I can make the connections immediately upon the start of the session. If I choose to do things in parallel, the connection to the underlying servers must be done at the RCPT command. I'll have to think about the pros & cons of each. Thanks John... -- Rick Vandenberg
