I asked myselft that too. I tried to send an email without autentificating and I couldn't. I think that the fact that the server doesn't need autentification means that you have first to to "sign in" in the pop3 and then the smtp server works ok
Don't think so, whenever you send an email, you don't have to have a POP3 server. And when you don't need to have one, you can't log in to one. Besides, it seems very unlogic to sign in into a POP3 account first before you can send with SMTP (two diff. protocols) That's the same reason why you could use the blueshore POP3 and the SMTP from your ISP....
BTW: and you could not send an email without autentification? I just thought you must disable autentification to send one with blueshore? I can't send an email when autentification is enabled....
Oh and it also seems that blueshore doesn't except certain recipient domains (which is an even stranger limitation)......
