Yes but you can use your hotmail account  and use iexplorer 8  I couldn't
use my cogeco account but I could use the hotmail account if it doesn't work
from thunderbird try the iexplorer8 and see if will be more user friendly  I
ran into the same problem when I went down east -- Jackie

Subject: [pchelpers] sending emails from apartment

I am at an apartment in New Orleans.  They provide wireless access.  (from
Cox)
I can receive email in Thunderbird, and I can surf the net.
What I can't do is reply to emails or send emails from Thunderbird.
I get this error when I try:
And error occured when sending mail.  The mail server sent an incorrect
greeting.
Cannot connect to SMTP server 208.180.40.68 (208.180.4.68:25) Connect error
10060


So, I CAN send mail if I go to Firefox and log into gmail.  But I would like
to send mail from Thunderbird and be able to click reply to reply to mail.

Any suggestions?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
