LOL...I just spent the last hour trying to figure out how to sign up
for an account at this site. This is the hardest nut I've had to
crack, to date. It took me twenty minutes to just find the signup form
page and then I had to try and translate the form fields. I had heck
trying to figure out how to enter a Dutch Postal Code. The form would
not accept a US postal code. I had to spend about 10 minutes searching
for a Dutch Postal Code to enter. :-)
I did, somehow, finally manage to create an account.
Like yourself, I can pop, but not send. Are you sure they offer SMTP?
I was trying both the servers of smpt.zonnet.nl and mail.zonnet.nl in
all possible configurations and nothing was working. I was getting
this error: 551 delivery not allowed to non-local recipient
So it would seem they have remote smpt shut off.
