	Depends on the configuration of the SMTP server and the mail 
server & client running on the laptop.  With SMTPAUTH and/or TLSSMTP, 
and using a different (unfiltered) port, this shouldn't be a problem.

	Can be.  Yup.  Think of all the iPass and GRiC customers who 
don't even know who the local provider is that they're dialing up, so 
that they can get a network connection?

	I'm very sorry to hear this.  Maybe we can help you get SMTPAUTH 
and/or TLSSMTP set up on your server and/or client?
