I've do this. I use Netcom to connect while out of town, so I can connect in most cities. My incoming mail, is my regular service, but my outgoing has to be the netcom account. If you don't use the service you are connecting to as your outgoing mail, then none of your message will be sent. Now, I'm not sure how it looks, but this message will be a good example as I am connecting w/the Netcom account. Also, I only use this on my personal laptop, so I don't have the problem describeed by Catherine below. And yes I do leave my mail on my server so I can have it on my desktop at home where all my folders are. - Renee Atkinson Hope this helps!
