Apples and oranges. You're comparing MacHTTP's treatment of the domain name to SIMS's treatment of the username. There's no username in an HTTP request so it's not all that relevant. SIMS distinguishes between two different domain names just fine (via the router). Your problem is actually with the POP RFC. As was pointed out, the POP username is just supposed to be a username, not user@domain name. So to do allow a username to be repeated in different domains and remain RFC compliant (unlike a lot of POP servers), SIMS, by necessity requires some extra work in the router. -- Larry Stone [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.stonejongleux.com/ ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
