Hi Martin,

Yes, if using a router you should be using DHCP and let the DHCP server hand 
out the DNS information.  If the DNS server is wrong this may explain the 
problem if you could not resolve the host names for the specific machines.

Thanks.
Andrew.

RE: Martin from RNIBThanks Andrew - I've noticed that a lot of the ISPs have 
started using authentication - I think in an effort to counter spam originators?

I've just made one change to the desktop machine as it was set with two 
explicit DNS addresses, one of which seems to have been wrong. All I've done is 
to turn on DHCP so it picks up both IP and DNS automatically...

Regards
Martin

  Hi,

  The names are definately done by aliases - the ones you get if you reinstall 
the settings using the signup script is:

  smtp.wanadoo.co.uk
  pop.wanadoo.co.uk

  Although POP3 is using auth, I didn't think SMTP should be using auth - I 
take it that in the auth section she has her username in there?  Strange.

  Andrew.

  Andrew,

  I've just checked Dorothy's email settings. The settings  were (for the
  desktop that would'nt connect reliably:

  Incoming: POP3.FREESERVE.NET
  Outgoing: SMTP.FREESERVE.NET
  Server Auth NOT set

  And for laptop which works:

  Incoming: POP.FREESERVE.COM
  Outgoing: SMTP.WANADOO.CO.UK
  Server Auth set ON

  I suspect that the significant difference is the server auth, as I suspect
  that the names are covered by aliases.

  Regards
  Martin
