War17, sorry about the pop htpp confussion and many thanks for your help.

I just wonder what other people do when they want to access their client email when away from home and behind a firewall.
I find web-based mail too restictive for my needs.

Unfortunately my ISP does not have IMAP, so a change to one that does would be the solution.

Regards,
Jezzy

If the owner of the network put up a firewall there, then accept it. The firewall is there to blocks certain ports specified by the owner. If you can overcome the block, that shows that the firewall isn't a reliable one.

could not some formally intended MailMaster or ComputerDepartment Chief see all attemts to go around their blocks of ports as a very suspiscious behavior?

Could be me imaginging this but some higher ups could use it against you in time of promotion to jobs. Am I too pessimistic.

The block is to stop workers going to non-working related websites or activities. Such attempts could be considered in anything but as for suspiscoius unless damaging activities were detected.
