Hi Dave,

Thanks for answering my question regarding qmail-popup.  Here's the
summary for the Mac's:

One Mac test machine is on a lan and the other is across the country on
wan.  The settings for outgoing mail server on the Mac's are:

server port: 25
Authentication: Password
User Name: mk
Password: ************


I get the following error when attempting to connect:

The SMTP server dmz.linkzone.com rejected the password for user mk

------------

For some reason the Mac mail app will not connect properly to the smtp
server while the Mac Eudora mail app and the Netscape PC do so with out
any problems.

Is there some obvous that I'm missing?  SHould I use a different port???

Thanks,

mlt
