This holiday season that*s just one of them HDTV, I mean the guy that wrote it is just, he is just a freak about it. He was on the Sony Committee that they help determine standards for HDTV so he knows what he is talking about. 24 minutes past the hour, lets go back to Austin who is trying to figure out what SMTP is all about. He has got a computer program called Computer Watchdog that does what a lot of programs that monitoring machine will do. Send you an E-mail if something*s happens or if nothing is going on or whatever and what it requires is something called SMTP to get that E-mail to you. And you don*t know SMTP is, is that right?

Austin: Yeah that*s correct I didn*t know how do like, what*s the type or---

David Lawrence: Okay so here*s how to do it. When you setup E-mail if you remember back to, what do you use for your E-mail client. Do you know?

Austin: I use Yahoo, what I have is Yahoo account.

David Lawrence: So you do that through your web interface.

Austin: My web interface.

David Lawrence: In other words, do you get your E-mail through that or through some other---

Austin: Yeah I get it all through that.

David Lawrence: Alright now this maybe a problem for you. Usually Yahoo does not allow you to send the E-mail from another program other than your browser.

Austin: Could --

David Lawrence: Well hang on. So the question is when you go to Yahoo and it says this is how you get your mail it depends due to different levels of Yahoo. Does yahoo in the troubleshooting area tell you what your pop server is or what your SMTP server is?

Austin: I went to some forms and I said to check out, to find out what it is you know like everything about it--

David Lawrence: It could be something as simple as smtp.yahoo.com but I doubt it, that*s what--

Austin: Yeah I tried that and I didn*t.

David Lawrence: So you have got a different problem. For people that don*t use online mail exclusively you can get a pop account, just a local internet provider can give you one for about 5 bucks a month. And they will have an SMTP server associated with that as well as a POP server usually is POP3 or POP.domian name.com. So if your ISP is Speakeasy for example or you know a Evernet or who knows what your ISP is, it would be your inbound mail would come through a server call POP.Evernet.com and your outbound mail would usually go through a server called SMTP.Evernet.com. So what you will need to do since you use Yahoo exclusively is actually get a real E-mail address from a real ISP that has servers that this piece of software can actually send mail through. I don*t believe you can do it when you have a free account for Yahoo or for Hotmail or --.
