I had similar problem I was staying at a motel that I could log on - I
couldn't`to use my server to send out emails - their server I believe is
Globetrotter- my server is Cogeco but I could send email via my hotmail
account --It was out on the remote coast of the Gaspe, Quebec. They are
basically all French and their techy`s can hardly speak English I know I
lived there for a short time...I live in Niagara Falls now where everything
usually works. Jackie
