Never apologise for being picky about things like that. Using the correct language is appropriate in this case. You're right, you just need a lightweight SMTP client, and indeed running an SMTP server (which of course also functions as a client) may be overkill and cause extra unnecessary configuration. I stand corrected. -- |-Simon White |-Internet Services Manager |-MTDS S.A. / \ |-tel +212.3.767.4861 # GIMPS current unit progress: 25.47% # |-fax +212.3.767.4863 # (http://www.mersenne.org/prime.htm) # |-14, rue 16 novembre \ / |-Rabat, Kingdom of Morocco
