Take this with a pinch of salt :-) I think it is simply a case of replacing NOS.PRG with the POP version. I don't know if the POP version has the SMTP stuff left in it. Except for saving a bit of space, I see no reason why it should have been taken out and every reason for leaving it in. >Would I be better leaving things alone and trying to set up Antmail >for the POP3 stuff? er - dunno! :-) __ Guy Harrison guy@swampdog.demon.co.uk
