The_Decryptor Veteran Posted February 6, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 6, 2005 Who's bandwidth, yours? Well, if your passport enable your account, all it does is make your e-mail passport enabled, it doesnt install software on your server that makes messenger connect through it.

Mattgduk Posted February 6, 2005 Author Share Posted February 6, 2005 So if i create an e-mail account on my server and get a .net passport for the e-mail address it wont use up my bandwidth by the user going on msn messenger??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kudos Veteran Posted February 6, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 6, 2005 It will not use up bandwidth on your server. /k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Thulbourn Posted February 6, 2005 Share Posted February 6, 2005 Am I the only person who finds this hard to read? I'm still routing for an IQ test on signup :D Anyway.. 1st create the e-mail address on your e-mail server and then goto passport.net and then register it as a .NET passport Doing it this way WILL consume bandwidth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Veteran Posted February 6, 2005 Veteran Share Posted February 6, 2005 This doesn't make sense. Bandwidth isn't part of the equation :blink: .NET Passports are created on Microsoft's own secure servers and are created from an email address; that email address is used to sign into those Passport servers, which then allow websites to store settings in your Passport on the Passport servers. FYI - Anything you do online uses bandwidth, because you have to communicate with some kind of server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
