Sjoerd, thanks for the help -- but it did not work. I tried using this in
SMTP Socket v0.95 stack that Shao Sean <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote. The program
works with my own SMTP password, but not with your suggestion.
Anything else I can try? Using my own SMTP server seems like a great
suggestion, but I need help to accomplish it.
Thanks again,
Raymond
