It's reality. We do have the option for SMTP/SSL/TLS over port 25. It is only required for an authenticated session. I agree, it's not the "right way to do things". Running a mail server used to be much easier. Volunteers to help set things up "the right way" are always welcome. :-) Otherwise, it will happen "eventually". :-( Tim Winders | Associate Dean of Information Technology | South Plains College
