I have pretty much given up on pop-before-smtp and find that it is poorly documented even on the sendmail.org site and apparently either vaguely implemented or not implemented at all in the latest Sendmail (the best I could find was HACK(popb4smtp). SMTP_AUTH is the alternative method supported by Outlook, which is the most commonly used MUA amongst my users so I will give that a try next. My preference for pop-b4-smtp is that it requires only a single tick in a box in most MUAs, and for grandma that in itself can be a challenge ;-) Thanks, bob
