That's how Binkley works .. it will, however, only deliver outbound mail.  I 
guess if the other end has a different (rather than no) password, it isn't 
going to give us any mail nohow - or likely hang around to take ours?
 TR> If Opus receives an inbound call and the other system is
 TR> using a different password or has no password, then Opus
 TR> will log its password and the password offered by the other
 TR> system if any.
Sounds about right, as long as we don't give them ours :)
Cheers, Ian
