Hi,
Hope you don't mind - I also had a quick look at this.

It worked for me using my own email settings and:
(1)Using the POP3 port (110) rather than the SMTP port before calling .oMail.Connect().
(2)Changing the Xmail.Connect() method to:
(a) pass sPassword rather than sLoginName as the parameter to _SendCommand()
(b) set bRetVal to true on success.

Didn't try with your email settings on moral grounds <g>

All in all I don't know where you got the XMail code from but, as is, it looks pretty flaky.....
