Sir Jan Gestre, Thank you for the enlightenment and sorry for my ignorance. I was force to solve this problem within 2 days that's why I seek help in this discussion. I know that it is much easier to setup a new mail server rather than configure a server setup by another person. Again a big thanks to you Sir Jan.

You can use 'pop3 before smtp' or smtp-auth, just google for more info. HTH -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
