Vern:

I try to word my replies to a high-level where Scott can give plenty of 
accurate detail. What I hoped to say was that MSF and the SMTP Server are 
conditioned by DASD threshholds -- but that does not apply to your own sockets 
programs.

If you write a sockets program to connect to a _remote_ SMTP server and send a 
mail message, your program will run fine. The _remote_ SMTP server won't be 
constrained by your _local_ DASD.

As it happens, SMTP is a pretty simple protocol. If you've ever written a 
sockets program, writing one that can send a text SMTP mail message is a snap. 
And it won't be related to MSF in any way, nor to your local SMTP Server unless 
that's the server you try to connect to. Neither MSF nor the SMTP Server need 
to even be started.
