Hi Sam, am Freitag, den 22.03.02, 16:28 (erhalten am 22.03.02, 23:17) meintest Du:

Well, for german users there would be at least three big freemail providers that should work with Arachne: GMX, Web.de and Arcor. GMX once had an international website in English, but they closed it several weeks ago. I don't know why or if this means that foreign users can't create an account there anymore, but it definitely was possible before. My main ISP and mail service is Arcor, as you can see in my address, and Arachne wouldn't work for the account procedure, because Java script is used for that. So I had to come up with MSIE 5.01 (16-bit) in order to get this thing straight. In the meantime I'm using IE 5.5 (32-bit) with Win95b, and except for some strange misbehaviour of all my Win apps since an attempted installation of an encyclopedia viewer last week I'm quite happy with it since almost a year now. But coming back to Arachne's usability with different POP3 and SMTP servers, I would say it should have no difficulties as long as the provider hasn't installed SMTP_AUTH exclusively on his SMTP servers (like Compuserve, for example), because this is not possible with the current Arachne version. Speaking of versions: What happened? I mean, where is it, the new one? ;-) Bis dann, Hans-Jürgen
