I'm pretty sure he is. That's MSN's way of forcing their subscribers to use their software. As a soon-to-be-former MSN subscriber, I've tried using SSL and stuff, but that ain't it....but Microsoft isn't trying to be a monopoly or anything. Heh. The only solution I know of to this one is to get an ISP that doesn't care which e-mail client you use. I've also heard rumors that AOL does something similar to their users, so beware of them also. Although, if anyone DOES come up with a way around SPA, I'd sure be interested, too. ~~Bill -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5.8ckt http://www.ipgpp.com/ iQA/AwUBPHFR0RnZffbbR295EQI7pgCfe+QL21HXDJefK5MXNuh5rO9dVXYAoMua w5EybR4v9955n4oPq3PNQDnR =1H3E -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
