M on Unix is fine for me because I can use fetchmail to get the mail and then M is just the front-end. However under Windoze I must use M to get the email as well and I found I cannot do this for the pop client that my ISP has. This is because it speaks FTGate which causes a problem for M. Fetchmail knows about FTGate and works around it. Is there any way that M can be configured to work around the FTGate problem?
When M connects to an FTGate pop server you get the errors below (ns.zylem.com is the pop3 server): Error: Mail log: SMTP authenitcation not available: ns.zylem.com Error: Cannot open connection to the server 'ns.zylem.com' Error: The message couldn't be sent When you telnet to the SMTP port you get: 220 WITHELD FTGate server ready - Zylem Limited I suspect it is the WITHELD response that causes the problem. It might be worth the M developers looking at how fetchmail is configured because it can deal with a huge number of problematic or non-RFC conforming mail servers.
