Now you on your laptop on vacation want to send mail. But you don't have an account at in Iceland where you like to go on vacation, so how do you send mail? You could use AOL, but that would suck.
Some ISPs are now allowing remote access, via ssl, to the smtp server. In my case, I connect to my home network, via vpn, and route smtp through it, to my ISP. They don't know where I am, they can only see the connection from my IP. I also run an imap server, for incoming mail.
Ugh! How complex are things getting. :-( -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
