However, you have probably defined the SMTP and POP3 server as indo.dev. This will cause Outlook to look for an SMTP server called indo.dev in DNS. Since this enntry is not present, Oulook will generate an error along the lines that it can not connect to the SMTP/POP3 server. If you don't want to tinker with DNS you can use IP adresses directly. If you are running Windows you can do an ipconfig on the machine that James is running on to find out the actual IP address. Use this IP address to configure the SMTP/POP3 server in Outlook and you should be able to connect remotely to your James server. You have to be aware that resolving a name like indo.dev to an IP address like 172.189.45.34 is being performed by DNS. If you do not tell your DNS you have a mailserver at a certain address that you want to call indo.dev, DNS will just return responses like 'unknown host' when Outlook asks DNS where indo.dev can be found. -- Jeroen --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
