If so then you have to run telnet on that server itselft and connect to localhost on port 25 to do a true test. The reason why I'm suggesting this is that the smtp server may not be configured to accept localhost connections. -Steve O. «¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤»§«¤»¥«¤» There's no obfuscated Perl contest because it's pointless. - Jeff Polk Steve O. http://www.steveo.us New pics: B17G and B24 http://www.steveo.us/B17-B24 B17G WWII Bomber "Yankee Lady" Flight http://www.steveo.us/b17ride SUNY NCC MATH/COMPUTER Dept. http://www.matcmp.ncc.edu --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
