Hello to BCB / Indy experts, Following a long and bad experience trying to use the NMSMTP & NMPOP3 components in my BCB6 Pro for HTML email I am finally on the point of giving up. I still want to complete my project of a small mail server (for a charity), however, so it seems there are two options, either to upgrade to Borland's new BCB or install Indy. To help me decide, can someone firstly tell me if the problems with HTML emailing have been fully sorted out in the new compiler's components? (Will it send HTML emails that can be read as such, for example?) Secondly, as I have no experience of Indy whatsoever, I am rather daunted by the few posts and replies I have seen mentioning various problems when installing it into a BCB environment. My second question is, therefore: Is there web page giving an idiot's step-by-step guide to the installation of Indy alongside / into my BCB6 Pro that I could follow 'blindly' and which will be successful first shot? ( I'm sure such a reliable guide would bring more BCB users onboard.) Another quick question is how do I decided which of the two Indy versions to choose - 9 or 10? Indeed, are there others to consider? I look forward to hearing. Thanks in advance. Peter Evans.
