One way I'm aware of to send e-mail from a Best run mail server (if they ever closed the open relay) would be to create an SSH tunnel from your current system to your shell account on Best, then configure your mail server to use 127.0.0.1 as the IP of the mail server to use for SMTP/POP3. Not only does this allow shell users to send mail via a "closed" relay, but it also encrypts your e-mail password before sending it to the mail server every time you send/receive e-mail. For details about how to configure such a connection from a Windows desktop to your shell account at Best, see: www.dgoldman.com/ssh.html -- David Goldman
