      Unless you have physical access or admin rights to the firewall machine, you're out of luck. Honestly, a program that tries to bypass a firewall would be more suspicious to a network admin than an app just using regular SMTP. A firewall is there for a good reason. --Mike-- Personal stuff:: Ericahist | Homepage Shareware stuff:: 1ClickPicGrabber | RightClick-Encrypt CP stuff:: CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ ---- #include "witty-quote.h"
