I presume you mean the Port 25 can only access the ISP's SMTP server, rather than the port being totally *blocked*. About the simplest would be: BLAT - -to accessd at shaw.ca -f stuart at lexacorp.com.pg -subject "Test Message" -body "This is a test message from Stuart to Jim" -server smtp.global.net.pg Note the initial "-" that's in lieu of "-<filename>" since do not have a text file containing the message body. Replace the "smtp.global.net.pg" with the ISPs mail server. -- Stuart On 20 Nov 2008 at 14:53, Jim Lawrence wrote: > Thank you Stewart: > > I had already downloaded BLAT as the internet seemed to suggest your > recommendation but was very much looking forward to a confirmation from > someone who has actually used the product... like yourself. > > This is a real rush... the client is in some sort of panic... which is > unusual for this individual but someone has stirred her up.
