Really? I guess I need to add some smarts to my Baton Mail program (right now it just tries each auth type it knows of until it finds one that works). Is there actually any harm in just trying each type in turn? (and not reading for supported types). I had looked at it in terms of, parsing the types was hard to add to my program logic (early design flaw on my part), so who was I going to annoy... a server? It just didn't seem worth the effort. BUT... if there is possible harm from not checking (such as the server may reject me after the first wrong type), then I might have to look at working it in. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
