RE: Pine and sendmail (further news)

maybe for pop3, if you ping mail.zetnet.co.uk and relay,zetnet.co.uk you 
get different ip addresses, therefore the two aren't aliases but seperate 
entities.. Try relay.zetnet.co.uk anyway & see what happens. You can't 
argue with the port 25 designation, that's the tcp/ip reserved port for 
smtp and the address you're resolving mail.zetnet.co.uk does not seem to be 
communicating on this port.
