You can set up The Bat! in a mode that enables this kind of workflow, albeit The Bat! does *not* act only as a regular mail server, like the one you know fromyour ISP, but more as "the account holder". > do we update only the A computer regularly with addresses etc.. and > could same be viewed in computers B & C?

There you can choose - on "A": The Bat! working as "Server" - on "B" & "C": The Bat! acting as client I don't know about stability of TB! acting as Workgroup-Server in the current release version, I do only know in the past there were problems here and there. If anyhow possible I'd go for a small "real" mail server, which acts as SMTP and IMAP server in your local network, fetches the mail from the internet and passes outgoing mail to your ISPs SMTP. The Bat! is a superb mail user agent, but for mail transfer agent stuff I'd rely on somthing that's specialized for this kind of stuff. -- Ciao, Peter ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.62.14 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
