Thanks Barbara,
that program does exactly, what I would Powermail want to do. The server
needs a secure identification, before it accepts to let you send your
mail. Too many hacks are around, that use eMail addresses of others
(which they can easily find in the web) to send their own illegal
messages. When you want to look into your income mailbox, you have to
identify yourself, before it even lets you have a look, even when its
empty. For this there is an existing option built in in every mail
programm, including Powermail. So the server lets you only send messages
right after you have looked into your inbox, as then you have given a
secure identification. It doesn't matter, if there are messages or not,
the trick is to use the identification.
As far as I remember, Outlook Express has the option "send after
receive", Powermail doesn't. Do I have to go back to Outlook Express to
get a comfortable way of sending messages for my association? Or does
anybody have an idea? Or knows about a script, that works only for one
account, connects to the server with identification, looks into the
incoming messages box and then sends the messages for that account?

Still hoping for help
