Here is a quote from SMTPOP.TXT,  the documentation file that is provided
with SMTPOP.EXE, by the program's author, Alfredo Cole:

>Syntax is very simple:

>SMTPOP your@address password

>Password is the same password you use to connect to your ISP.

>It has a built in debug feature, and in case of an error, it
>will report the exact cause so that you (and me) can try to
>solve it.

>Please take note that it was not designed to be run from within
>PMAIL. It is best suitable to run it as a batch process to handle
>your outgoing and incoming mail in one bundle.

Here is my report, informing you all about my results:

I enter "smtpop [EMAIL PROTECTED] password" and outgoing mail is
successfully sent, but when SMTPOP attempts to download my incoming
mail, an error is returned:
   "-ERR sending password for [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I enter "smtpop [EMAIL PROTECTED] password" and the same thing
happens.

I enter "smtpop [EMAIL PROTECTED] password"  THAT WORKS!  It
sends outgoing and downloads incoming.

Perhaps the same type of server addressing scheme would work for anyone
else trying to use SMTPOP.EXE.  If anyone tries it, please post your
results.

Please bear in mind that before you can use SMTPOP you must first load
a packet driver and you must have a suitable WATTCP.CFG file.

I used NETDIAL by Marc Ressl, and I used EPPPD, and I used the same
WATTCP.CFG that I use for Bobcat/Lynx.

I hope this information is helpful to someone.
