Sorry Chris,...My bad! Should've mentioned in previous post, I'm using
Mandrake Security. It uses Bastille, and Squid. There aren't any pop or smtp
servers in-house. All handled by the ISP. So, I have to be able to use my
proxy's port to get out of my LAN and get to the ISP to collect email. The
problem is that there aren't any settings in KMail for proxy settings.
That's what I'm curious about. We're running 50% Windows (Yuch! Ptewey!) and
50% Mandrake (WooHoo!) workstations. Outlook express handles the proxy by
using whatever you setup in IE5.5 . Netscape handles the proxy fine, but
only if you're running 1 - POP3 account. You can't run multiple POP3
accounts on 1 PC with Netscape, unless there are multiple users, which
requires that you re-login for each. Thanks anyways for the help.
