	I assume that this is the command you use to start PPP under
ISDN.

	You have to provide the mail server's address, not the domain.
In this case, it probably is mail.zetnet.co.uk. So replace the
domain.co.uk bit by mail.zetnet.co.uk

	To make sure this is your mail server try
	telnet mail.zetnet.co.uk 110

	If you get a +OK... message, type
	USER user_name
	You should get
	+OK user_name selected
