    I'm not a professional in any sense of the word, I just toy with
    technology out of love. I have yet to find a good tutorial or
    instruction manual on how to use TCP/IP or many of the other
    technologies used in security and the internet. While I'm sure they
    exist, I simply haven't stumbled across them yet. It took me several
    tries with Google to find an explanation of SMTP; even then it wasn't
    obvious from the search results. Perhaps if somebody would make a
    website or (inexpensive) book dedicated to topics such as these, more
    geeks/professionals would have a knowledge of it.

    And that concludes my outsider's view. :)
