RE: Simple internal e-mail system for AS/400

["Shaw, David" <dshaw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

As Todd notes, this setup can be done with virtually any POP3 client.  I'm
using Outlook Express (or "Lookout!" as some call it ;), and it works fine.
To set it up, go into Accounts, then add a new mail account, then give it
your name, e-mail address on the /400, and the /400's name or (I think this
works!  I used the name, though, so I'm not certain) IP address as the POP3
and SMTP servers.  I originally had it working with Outlook Express 4.01,
and it has continued to work with 5.0 and now 5.5, through all the myriad
service packs, security patches, and version upgrades.  It worked first
time, no fussing or mussing.  The /400 was at V4R2 when I set it up, and
V4R4 now.  I used the Bytware instructions that others have referred to to
set up the /400.

If you have any problems, let me know.  BTW, this same setup should work for
any e-mail client that supports the POP3 protocol.  The setup steps may be a
little different, but the principle is the same.
