HELP! read pop:// from DSL mailer fails

 [1/10] from: ehawk4:earthlink at: 21-Jan-2004 15:42


Hello can anyone help -- I recently changed from a dial up to DSL for network connection. The READ and SEND no longer function. My Microsoft Outlook still work fine -- I noticed that I was required to set the options "outgoing the same as incoming" (I think this is the problem that REBOL has with this POP mailing account. Is there an easy work around here? Many thanks Evan Log:- read pop://myacc:[mypass2--verizon--net] URL Parse: myacc mypass verizon.net none none no ne Net-log: ["Opening" "tcp" "for" "POP"] connecting to: verizon.net ** Access Error: Cannot connect to verizon.net ** Where: open-proto** Near: read pop://myacc:[mypass--verizon--net]

Hi Evan, Strange .... Are you still using the same mail server? i.e. Is verizon.net your mail server? Does your account name contain an @ symbol? (Rebol doesnt like email names of the form [user--name]@somewhere.net) Cheers Phil

Hi Evan, Perhaps there is someone else on the list using verizon DSL ?? (Any takers??) Swithing to DSL shouldnt have made any difference ... I use ADSL here in Australia with no problems. Have you used AltME .... you could try asking on the Rebol world. Cheers Phil

Methinks you've got your pop and smtp setup incorrectly. Try pop://myacc:[mypass--incoming--verizon--net] set-net [ [ehawk4--earthlink--net] outgoing.verizon.net incoming.verizon.net none none ] -- Graham Chiu http://www.compkarori.com/cerebrus<

Graham OK... After installing the esmtp and esend (with a trace/net on) I get the following:

Any ideas as to what is going on? Evan

Looks like esend doesn't work with this particular brand of esmtp. RT has authenticated smtp on their list of to dos. You might have to wait until that is done unless Scott is around still to create a new version ... -- Graham Chiu http://www.compkarori.com/cerebrus<

Replying to myself on this one. Here's an alternative solution that I just tested. Download the free for personal use and not for spamming postcast smtp server at http://www.postcastserver.com/ Install it etc. Now, set your smtp server to your local pc's ip address if you're on a network. I don't have dial up at present so not sure what to use there. Note that localhost and 127.0.0.1 did not work for me. Eg: if your pc has IP address of 192.168.1.25, then set-net [ [erhawkins--verizon--net] 192.168.1.25 incoming.verizon.net ] should work. -- Graham Chiu http://www.compkarori.com/cerebrus<
