Also do what Telsa said because you wont be able to use the outgoing mailserver of an isp if you are dialed into another isp...that would just be opening up the isp who is hosting the smtp server to all sorts of bandwidth issues. <p>Ladin<br><a href=mailto:matchu_14@hotmail.com>matchu_14@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>Tech support for 1 1/2 years, build computers, messed with C, HTML, Working on Flash, Role-Playing Game Junkie (Diablo2)
