If you want to send mail, either have access to a remote SMTP server (your ISP *has* to have one) or install one yourself on your computer. I have no clue what your OS is but if you're using Linux/Unix, go search for sendmail, Qmail or Exim. For windows, Exchange. I think this isn't the place to ask about setting up an SMTP server. -- --Matthew Sims --<http://killermookie.org>
