Hello,

I am quite new to Pocket PC 2002 but I have the need to connect it to a mail server over an SSH connection. I loaded a portforwarder program which has an embedded SSH client and this comes up successfully.

The SSH connection comes up successfully and the portforwarder is configured to forward ports 25 and 110. I believe that the issue is on my pocket outlook client. How do I configure it to send data to the equivalent of a "localhost" This is what must be done to configure mail to work on WIndows 2K and outlook. Can anyone on here help me?

Thanks

Hmm. I've never tried this (was going to, haven't had the time), but have you tried specifying "localhost" as the hostname? The Pocket PC has a standard TCP/IP stack, so it should support that. If not, try "127.0.0.1".
