[ILQSO] Test Message

[Hank Greeb]

Jim:

I plead guilty.  When I think of "client server" I'm thinking of a piece 
of software like netscape mailer, outlook, outlook express, eudora, etc. 
- which one installs on his or her computer where he or she formulates a 
message and sends and receives messages.  That's where one lists the 
server, the port used to get into the server (usually as a default, but 
I suspect it could be changed, though I've never had to do this on any 
of my servers), the name you use on your account, the password for that 
account (whether to "save" it on your computer), the e-mail address 
which you wish to put on the message itself (not necessarily the name on 
the server account), et. cetera.

If this nomenclature is incorrect, perhaps you can tell me what this 
piece of software should be called.

I have a real e-mail address "aname"@utmi.net, another 
"adifferentname"@one.net, and a "pseudo" e-Mail address  n8xx at arrl.net 
which I use as the address on many outbound messages which are related 
to ham radio.  This is the point which I was attempting to describe.

73 de n8xx Hg
