I'm not sure I understand the problem. I read my .Mac mail using Eudora
because .Mac is served as both IMAP and POP services. The DNS settings
would come from your ISP and the connection configured by DHCP so while
the two are connected, Enroute should use whatever your Newt has
configured. I would have thought.

Well Eudora works for me and I use it against a .Mac account. There is
a problem with timeouts though if the .Mac server doesn't respond as
quickly as it should.
