This may have nothing to do with your problem but I had some trouble with an ISP who would not accept outgoing emails unless the account had been read immediately beforehand. I think it was part of their security requirements. It may be possible that all the non-ICS emailers that work do this "read" then "send", you may need to do a dummy read to the account before you send. > > The mail server is on a customer site, so we don't have direct access > to it. > > We are at a loss at the moment.
