Christov:

I'll answer your 3 emails in one.
I had to copy /root/Mail/inbox with your 3 emails in one file (Mutt
Linux) to C:\pmail\dos\123.cnm (DOS Pegasus Mail) as I cannot reply
from Linux.

I download my mail with FDSMTPOP.EXE for DOS. It allows 3 types of
authentication when using SMTP.

I didn't keep Steven's email.
To see if it is a problem with my configuration of Pegasus, Steven
should send you a DIRECT email to you.

I looked at smail but did not find SMTP authentication there.

I have an email account at @myrealbox.com that I use to receive
another list. It authenticates by doing POP3 before SMTP.
I don't want to suscribe this list there.
@myrealbox.com does not allow new accounts.

I use loadkeys and es.map with my spanish keyboard from SW 4.0.
Exellent.
It even allows me to input ~ using Alt Gr + 4 .
~ is not included in the spanish keyboard.
In Dos or Windows I have to key alt + 126.
