Well, you can not blame sylpheed just yet. You have to take into consideration your internet provider. I noticed that whenever I went to any of my friends house with sbcyahoo or any equivalent services under that "umbrella" (i.e. AT&T, BellSouth, etc), then I can not send out any email using POP unless, I use their POP access (i.e. mail.sbcglobal.net, user/password.. you get the idea). Look at it that way. HTH -Altoine eoghan wrote:

I have just installed sylpheed from ports. Just a few questions... - can i use it without X11?
definitely NO !
- how would i add an icon to my dock for this app? im more used to doing this on freeBSD.
yes make use of my AppleScript Sylpheed launcher lovated here : <www.yvon-thoraval.com/Scripts/> or, when my box is down : <thoraval.yvon.free.fr/Scripts>
takes one of the files :
Sylpheed_dist.dmg.zip (the bin only) Sylpheed_src.dmg.zip (the whole AppleScriptStudio project)
the AppleScript app WORKS ONLY with the MacPort installed Sylpheed (path to sylpheed is "hard" coded, but u might change that to your needs esealy.
- has anyone using sylpheed set it up using gmail? I have set it up with gmail on a windows machine, which works fine receiving but i cant send my using it...
no prob because gmail is POP...
NOTICE the MacPorts Sylpheed is OUT OF DATE since YEARS (2 to 3)...
i'll write a pkg in order to install Sylpheed the latest within weeks, if interested, send me an email...
best,
Yvon
Hi Yvon Thanks for that. I suspected X11 was mandatory, just wanted a confirmation. I will have a look at your files too. I dont understand your answer about gmail being POP... sylpheed supports POP3. I have setup gmail on Apple mail and thunderbird with no problems. As I said I can set it up fine with no problems, I just cant send any mail from sylpheed using my gmail account... Thanks Eoghan
