But if port 25 is closed for the client machine (in case they have a local smtp server that handles all outgoing mail, and I guess they do because Stuarts mails contain the header "X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V6.00.2800.1409"), its no use to try, no matter what program. In fact, closing port 25 for all client computers is a good idea. You never know if a brand new worm (that your virus scanner doesn't know yet, happens all the time) will infect a client machine. With port 25 closed, at least it can't spread to the outside world. -- Best regards, Alexander (http://www.neurowerx.de - ICQ 238153981) Politicians and diapers have one thing in common: They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason. ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.0.2.10 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
