As a person who has written C++ code, I have found the book very useful so far with few problems gettings the examples to work. (My platform is Win 95). Really, this book is the breakthrough I have been looking for. For the first time I really can imaging myself understanding and teaching Java. I have not gotten SendMail to work. I get a "hostname not found" error even though I verified the host name by looking in the details of a message in Outlook Express. I also pinged the host name successfully.
