This was the point I was making. A local mail-server isn't necessarily a waste of money for those using a dial-up connection. Not necessarily true at all. I've found that MDaemon connects and negotiaties with POP and SMTP servers faster than TB!. It actually has a great support for unattended dial-up. It could actually be a cost saver ... but I'm not really writing this to make you change how you do things. You're already happy with your method that's quite OK. Only you would know what works best for you. However, this may not be the case for others who could greatly benefit by using their own local servers. It's not an overkill solution in many instances where it's initially perceived as being so. - -- -=Allie C Martin=- List Moderator | TB! v1.60m | Windows XP Pro PGP/GPG Public Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=2B0717E2 _________________________________________________________________ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQE87/Q1V8nrYCsHF+IRAmIwAKDNwJNJaay071SMT8iVbl7BKtPzagCg4Kvf q0n5S8incf8GkU7VlzD3jN0= =CqmM -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ 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
