There is a setting in the account "Send Mail" properties "Use POP before SMTP". The idea (I think) is that it first connects to the POP server as some SMTP servers require you to be authenticated there first.
The problem is that it seems to authenticate to the wrong server, so the setting is not working for me. I use my work SMTP server to send my Compuserve and work email. For Compuserve my Pop server is set to pop.compuserve.com and the SMTP server to the work server. When I want to send Compuserve mail, TB connects to pop.compuserve.com first (because of the "Use Pop before SMTP" setting) then attempts to send mail from the work SMTP server. This fails unless I have manually retrieved mail from the work server first because pop.compuserve.com is completely separate from my work server. Is there a way to configure TB to attempt to authenticate with the SMTP server's pop service before sending mail? I hope this makes sense!! -- Best wishes Christopher mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.60k on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
