Re: Could not connect to SMTP host

I tried my ISP's smtp and still the same problem: mail.optonline.net.

I don't like the fact that the anonymous URL is easy to decode. I was 
hoping for something like ....album=23424a8439f9834....

Another quick question: how can I tell what IP address is hitting 
public albums pictures ?

Thanks .

Hemant.
