Re[2]: TB! & Hotmail & Yahoo mail
Hi Jurgen: JH> I get the error 'pop authenticate before sending mails'. Hmm...never saw that...are you running something else on those ports? I am running Hotmail Popper and YahooPop. However, Hotmail Popper seemed to suffer when I had both utilities running on the same ports. I had to switch the ports (pop3 and SMTP) on Hotmail Popper from 110 and 25 to 8110 and 825. I am not sure if running something like SpamPal or other service on the same ports would create a conflict. Perhaps changing the ports might help. I can't think of any other issues. - Ricardo Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

JH> how do you send mails with YahooPops? I can't. 1) Double-click the YahooPops tray icon to open the the configuration window. 2) Click on "Advanced Settings" 3) Select "Network" submenu 4) Bind on I.P. Address = 127.0.0.1 Pop port = 110 Enable SMTP = checked SMTP port = 25 You can even use secure login: 1) Do steps 1 and 2 above 2) Select "Security" submenu 3) "Connect in secure (HTTPS) mode" = checked Checking mail takes a while however. Just in case: I am using Version 0.5 June 19th, 2003. - Ricardo Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hi David: Spike>> The author of web2pop has ignored my repeated Spike>> requests for information or a Spike>> fix, which is pretty shabby considering I PAID for the privilege! Can Spike>> anyone provide some enlightenment on this? Alternatives for Yahoo?? DS> Try YahooPops! Available at the sourceforge website. I've been using it DS> to download my sister's message bases. Last Sunday we downloaded 250 messages DS> from her 'sent' folder. Worked just fine. I tried YahooPops and Hotmail Popper based on recommendations here and I am very pleased. Not only are they free, and pretty stable, but I can also send mail through these clients. Web2pop, on the other hand, must be registered and does not provide SMTP service. Now I can use my Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to respond to other newsletters and less reputable mailing lists without exposing my "preferred e-mail addresses. Thanks to everyone for the tips! - Ricardo Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Probably a bit slower due to the extra level of indirection that web2pop presents. The people on the web2pop forums (I think there were some forums on the site) would be able to answer that better though. -Vishal Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
