Nice tools but... I would never enter a username and password on a remote website. This form data can easily be saved to a database. Call me paranoid.

The other tools will be useful.

Edit: we use this site a lot. http://tools.appriver.com/

I totally agree! However you could use a temporary user and password (or just change the password).

Thanks for the AppRiver tools link btw.

Agreed, not just my paranoia but clients data.

For checking email I use an out of office + FWD on a Test.Email account on my server.
Send from client - wait - Get reply = okay.
Also FWDs to account on my phone - so can determine if a fault is TX or RX
simples

Thanks for the above links


EDIT: - used to use telnet to check emails - now email servers htey all got security , don't know how to do it from DOS
