My ISP also started doing that BS to my horror (requiring you to use their own slow, buggy, SMTP server instead of my domains like I've been doing for years). So, are you saying that with Tbird you can't set up your own domain name email addresses?
I've said the same thing about FireFox with regards to IE, and other email programs like Eudora and a couple others. Unfortunately, none of these have ALL the features that M$ products have. Until they do, few are going to want to switch to fewer features. Why they refuse to add these features is beyond me. It's like they DON'T want people to switch. I wonder if M$ is somehow "blocking" them or in some way refusing to let them have certain features?? -Clint Happy New Year to all & God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) http://ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeff Dougherty" Peter, I was using Outlook Express and reverted back to it. I just haven't been able to find something that will do everything OE will.. These companies are trying to win Outlook Express users, but they are making their programs way different. One of them, I couldn't even set up my POP account, since my email goes through my website. My DSL companies make me go through the authentication instead of using my mail.domain SMTP.

Both on my windows and bsd box. What app did you use before?
