Now how stupid do I feel at this moment? On a scale of 1 to 10 about 10,000! Thanks for your help, that fixed it!

Hi again.

Still not working. I have set both the SMTP_Port and the POP_Port to values that are not in use (as checked by netstat);

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\NotePage\PageGate]
"SMTP_Port"=dword:00002729
"POP_Port"=dword:0000277e

I still get "Unable to start SMTP Server: Port already in use" in the GetMail Monitor window.

My mistake, I thought the only reason you were changing the port was because of the error. If that's not the case, then I suppose you would have multiple SMTP services running.

OK, so what's the answer?

Wait, if it says that the port is already in use, that normally means that another SMTP service is active on the system. Check your Services list in Windows, look for any SMTP or Microsoft SMTP Services that might be there. If you see any, disable or remove them and let's see if that takes care of it.

WHAT!! The whole point of my question was that I needed to change the port that PageGate was listening on. Isn't that when your registry setting is supposed to do? It's what I was asking for.

To change the port that GetMail listens to, you'll need to do the following:

1) In Windows, go to Start - Run.

2) Type the following and click on OK: regedit

3) When the registry editor comes up, expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - Software - NotePage - PageGate

4) Create a New DWord value called SMTP_Port

5) Edit the Value of that key to be the new port to listen to.

6) Restart the computer so Windows picks up on the new registry entry.

Thanks, I have tried that but GetMail is still complaining when it starts that it cannot open the Port as it may already be in use. I have tried a number of different ports (and I checked each time with netstat that the port was unused).

I would like to change the port that the PageGate GetMail Interface listens on to avaoid an conflict. I found a post from 2003/4 that said this information was located in the help file but the location it gave does not exist any more. Where can I find this?
Thanks
