Hello Martin,

 MF>>> The problem here is that the "@" preceeding the domain is hard-coded.

So.. it looks like WinPoint is limited to uplinks that support 5D only (except
for mbcico(MBSE)?   Are you experimenting with all the other "Fido Over IP"
options in WinPoint?

Is there a specific NL entry that indicates 5D systems?

This is really good of you to reveal the details/problems.

In another matter..

I wish there was a way to M)ark or T)ag a message for later reading/replying. 
I don't always feel like replying to a message that I am currently reading, but
 I'd like it to stand out so that I can find those messages later.  Thunderbird
 has that feature hands-down.
