You're right, but they are *salespersons*. I was solving exactly the same problem a month ago, and when I advised our travellers just to use ISP SMPT servers, they even didn't ask what SMTP is, they just told they weren't ready to mess with technical issues (and, to be frank, I prefer to sleep at night rather than be awaken in the middle of the night with phone calls screaming "it does not send my email!", if they forgot or just do not know how to found out what their current ISP is and what its SMTP server is). So who cares? I installed SMTP AUTH and let these guys sit for hours in front on ther laptops waiting for their messages (sometimes - with some graphics attachments) to be delivered though dial-up. --> -- --> Tzafrir Cohen --> mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --> http://www.technion.ac.il/~tzafrir --> Max ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
