To send email directly from my internet connection (not DNS of ISP). Not
for spamming purposes. My ISP's email server goes down ALL THE DAMN TIME,
an I am sick to death of relying on him to send email. This always happens
when I have a resume, or other important thing to send and NO, I don't want
to use webmail.

Thanks in advance for assistance

MailEnable from www.mailenable.com should do the trick, although it
may be a bit more full-featured than you want. It should be pointed
out, however, that depending on the spam-blocking software that the
receiving e-mail server is running, they may automatically discard
your e-mail due to being from a certain IP range.

Requires IISS4.0 whatever that is.

Requires .net software to be installed for the Win32 version.

Where, exactly, do you get this impression? System requirements for
Windows systems are as follows:

- Windows 95, 98, NT4, 2000 or XP workstation
- Properly-configured TCP/IP services running on the workstation
- 1.5MB disk space, plus overhead for received and stored mail
- 2-5MB workstation RAM depending on loading
- In NetWare mode - a NetWare 3.x, 4.x, 5.x or 6.x file server on your
local area network, and genuine Novell workstation software installed
on the workstation where Mercury/32 runs (client workstations need not
necessarily use genuine Novell requester software).
- On Windows NT, Microsoft's SRVANY utility (part of the Windows NT
Resource Kit) is required if you wish to run Mercury/32 as a Windows
Service.

None of those items mention .Net framework. I highly recommend you
closely read the requirements for both MailEnable and PMail.

Well, I could have sworn that when I went to the site to download it that
*somewhere* on there it said that you had to have .NET installed. I dunno,
maybe I am just getting old and senile.

I downloaded MailEnable and I could RECEIVE emails but not send with it. I
don't understand why everything has to be quite so complicated. I used
Advanced Direct Remailer during it's trial period and it was the easiest
software in the world to configure and use.

I will try Mercury Mail and see if that works any better.

Thanks for your reply. Hell, I dont' know where I got the .NET thing.
Sheesh.
