Sounds like an expensive solution to me. Is there no other simple hack? The main advantage of gmail or any web based program is that the user will be able to access the email from anywhere on earth (as long as he has internet connection). If he has to use some other SMTP server, then it beats the purpose doesnt it? Anyway, if no better solution comes up, then I will add this as suggested. raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Click to get 125% of your home's value, super fast, no lender fees http://tags.bluebottle.com/fc/CAaCMPJkv4MDnRChhwnA8hLJqWXJ7jjm/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
