Re: Changing ISP and GreenNet E-mail
Hi Phil,
in theory you should be able to send mail through our server smtp.greennet.org.uk . The only reason why you wouldn't be able to is because you didn't authenticate youself. You can authenticate yourself by collecting mail. That's why we recommend to collect email prior to sending email through our server. The problem with this is that some programs (e.g. Outlook Express) don't offer this option. You could though manually do this by clicking [b]Tools|Receive All[/b] before [b]Tools|Send and Receive[/b].
[i]BTW. Authentication is necessary because otherwise anyone (in particular any spammer) could send email through our mail server.[/i]
(Edit, 2005: password authentication is accepted too, contact support for details)
Hope this helps.
