I wrote a very basic e-mail client in Perl. If I wrote a basic one, that means someone else probably wrote a full-fledged one. I think pine uses SMTP, but I'm not certain. Didn't they prove that thing insecure?

Specifically, I'm looking for a server. I don't want an app. I just want a server address so I can send my damned email.
dtman got blacklisted a long time ago by some pissed off liberal, and I'm no longer on my own ISP whose SMTP server I can use.
Doesn't gmail have one available for use? But I don't have a gmail email yet. And it's still invite-only.

edit - belay request. Thib hooked me up with a gmail invite, and I've figured out how to use their SMTP.
All kinds of wacky settings and ports, there...

Yea. Just remember that it might still be in beta for a reason. Google is starting to get kinda frightening.

Only need to do this for a short time until I get in my house and set up a real ISP.

That's a pretty familiar theme on the web.
