Somebody plz tell me how >to go about it?Could it be that you are trying to implement an SMTP client? Implementing an SMTP server that deserves this description on a Rabbit 3000 is IMHO very difficult. Anyways, a good start is to read RFC 821 http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc821.html IMHO the Rabbit libraries do not support DNS resolver code able to resolving MX records, something absolutely required in order to write an SMTP server. If this is not just for the fun of it/education, consider using one of our embedded e-mail servers. ( www.nct-technology.com ) HTH Markus

Click on "show options" at the top of the article, then click on the "Reply" at the bottom of the article headers." - Keith Thompson
