Like me. So there's at least two of us on the list who need this info. Speaking personally with some prior help I can now email within the box, i.e. id1 can email id2 who can then reply back to id1. However going the next step, receiving email from a remote server and sending email out to the internet is something I have no clue how to do. Don't even know how to start, and the stab I made at following tutorials found by googling got me nowhere at breakneck speed. Not that I'm complaining but you did ask. :) Marty Landman Face 2 Interface Inc 845-679-9387 Sign On Required: Web membership software for your site Make a Website: http://face2interface.com/Home/Demo.shtml
