How's this for a possible scam: they send emails to victims re. <we are updating your system; you must 'clik' this URL else your service will be stopped in 10 days>. For those who refuse the 'fill in the form', there an extra incentive: by arranging a DOS on the ISP, the scammers make the victims BELIEVE that their problem is caused by NOT 'fill in the form' ? And they tell their friends "you better fill in the form". It's been a while since I last telneted a pop, but by just copying my old logs, I tried this on my ISP2 which is NOW also failing pop:- -> nc -v -w 60 mail.neomail.co.za 110 DNS fwd/rev mismatch: mail.neomail.co.za != www.neomail.co.za mail.neomail.co.za [41.168.1.37] 110 (pop3) open +OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 POP3 service ready USER 0110246665@neomail.co.za <-- waits, but no echo ?! PASS ****** -ERR Protocol error. Connection is closed. 10 ---------------- IIRC, you should get a reply to: USER <somestring> Or? == TIA BTW this neomail originally had a crappy web-based interface and I was hppy to find pop/smtp access; so can I do that with gmail? What's their URL's? Lately I've been using `links` to get into my-gmail, but when I tried to abort [instead of logging out] and log-in to the second account, it just went back to the first. So thinking it may be cause by a cache effect, I did `lynx gmail.com` which wouldn't use the cache of `links`. What a load-of-crap: it just kept going back-and-forth about <cookies and get the certificate> until I just pulled out the wireless-modems plug. It's getting worse by the day. How are other users finding it?

I don't see anything referencing sendmail just complaining about an ISP. So why are you here? I have no problems with email but then I use a reliable hosting service to handle my email. You might want to do the same. -- Robert Blair

What's their URL's? pop.gmail.com BTW, you should look for manual configuration settings in web-mail user help; it may require so digging though. And, no, that so called linux-shop doesn't suggests fetchmailrc line, how ironic. *SKIP* > It's getting worse by the day. How are other users finding it? It *is* for years. -- Torvalds' goal for Linux is very simple: World Domination Stallman's goal for GNU is even simpler: Freedom
