Greetings Olaf,
Thank you for providing access_user to the community. I love the product. It was easy to install and and any problems I had were easily resolved searching through the message boards.
As a novice php person (small propellor on head) looking through a network engineer's eye (slightly bigger propellor on head), I was wondering if it is possible to modify the send_mail script in the class to relay confirmation mail through an offsite smtp account. The current firewall I am subjected to prevents my server from contacting a number of other mail servers, i.e. AOL, Comcast, etc.
I was hoping there might be a way to setup the send_mail procedure of the class to authenticate to an external smtp server for this purpose?
Many thanks for your time and efforts, Paul

I'm busy at the moment to use the my email class together with the access_user class, the same time I will write a module to use phpmailer to send the mails...
