All I know is that, at least as of the last time I checked, the AS/400's
email client required the email server to be on an AS/400 as well, (I
think) the same AS/400, and if you wanted to send email through another
server, you have to write a front-end for JavaMail, or use some
third-party client.

Since both our Wintouch product and our web-based installer use JavaMail
for all AS/400-originated email activity, I can't help you with the AS/400
email server, or with 3rd party AS/400 email clients (if any exist).
