hmmm... do i smell an afternoon's worth of hacking? ;) im sure that if url (or http) based smtp service is offered by the site, then a perl (or any other) script (ala fetchyahoo) could be created to use that service. of course, if there are cookies that need to be maintained, then a little more hacking could be done to figure things out. analyzing the request header that goes out from outlook that uses the url based smtp service should give an idea on how the application uses the url to send your email. in my estimate, this would be a weekends' worth (or even 2 weeks if needed) of hacking. ;) unless of course there are solutions out there that doesn't require you to hack... i think google could help you in that area. ;) -- -=[mikhail]=- aka Dean Michael C.
