Good point - there's always that to fall back on. Being lazy I'd like to just carry on doing things in the same way with the same email client though, irrespective of the access method.

Thanks - I'm using Outlook 2002, although I suspect any access problems will be simple refusal of the SMTP server to accept posts for an account you're not connected through (if that makes sense). Actual configuration of the client should be easy enough (or transparent if the "Use current connection" setting's OK here).

Cheers,
Ian
