Well, both? According to the "about" window in the client on the 200LX, it is indeed "cc:Mail mobile", but I believe I also need to set up a "normal" post office. (The 200LX manual does not say anything specific about versions.) > There were also the SMTP, POP3, and IMAP gateways for cc:Mail Post > Offices. [...] Yes, it may have been 8.1 I looked at a while ago. At that time I had the impression the SMTP gateway only handled outgoing mail, but that does not really make sense, and apparently it handles both directions. > Fetchmail -> cc:Mail SMTP -> Internet SMTP server > ^ > | > V > cc:Mail PO > ^ > | > V > cc:Mail Mobile > ^ > : > : > : > V > cc:Mail Remote > > I think that the top three lines could likely run one system. Well, I think the bottom two are the same (i.e. delete "mobile" and change "remote"->"mobile"). I was able to connect the 200LX to a Post Office using null modem with no "mobile" or "remote" add-on installed on the windows PC, if I remember correctly. I think "mobile" was a product for laptops, and the one on the 200LX was a minimal version of that. > Do you think this might do what you are wanting to do? After all, it > seems like it's cc:Mail's answer to your question. Yes, probably. All I can say is that it did not seem so simple when I looked at it some time ago. (I think my problem was that I did not consider Fetchmail. I was looking for that functionality in the cc:Mail documentation.) /Tomas
