There are two types of protocol that will help you one is the

RFC0821.txt available from the Demon Site

The other which I can't remember the RFC code deals with POP3.

SMTP is mainly used for passing information to each other whilst POP3 is
used to collect mail.  Demon however just uses SMTP.  

To access your mai via your own software, just listen on PORT 25 of your IP
address
and then follow the RFC0821 SMTP protocol.

Any problems mail me direct. On jhomer@pulsesoftware.demon.co.uk
