Some servers require that you read from your mailbox before you try to send
anything. In this way you are authenticated (because normally only reading
requires a password).
If you have a relatively clear mailbox try:
your-emails: READ your-accountnamehere:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
This statement will not delete anything from your mailbox (but the server
may mark them as read).
If you know your mailbox is pretty full and you don't want to download
everything then consult the user guide to see how to just login, get a list
and logout.
(note the colon between the account name and password).
Then try your SEND.
I cannot remember if REBOL has something built-in to do this automatically
for you.
Regards,
Brett.
