Chris, >Sounds like Earthlink is singling you out, maybe you annoyed them at >some point so now they are screwing with your email.
I wouldn't be surprised, though a friend who also uses Earthlink (but not Claris) says he has found they are dropping some of his mail from the web page - in other words not receiving it. Also the web site is receiving 23 or more spam mails a day (which doesn't all get through to me on Claris thank goodness). I am usually quite polite even when they don't understand you because of language problems, or when you mention your Claris software which they say they can't help you with, even though its their problem and not Claris. Its also hard to find any of them who understand the Mac ,and usuallyI have to ask them to put me through to a Canadian techie, where there is only one guy skilled in the Mac system. I've actually been very persevering with them and he appeared to be helping to isolate the problem, saying in the end that he would forward the problem to their engineers (is that a clue?), after you convince them its not Claris (always an uphill battle!). At least they have admitted their Web site is not acting as it should. Even so it hasn't resolved my problem of late mail. Clearly when it comes to Email this is the only sane system out there ! So thank goodness for the list :) Bea > >-chris ><www.mythtech.net> > Bea [email protected] >On May 4, 2009, at 7:20 PM, Beatrice Hopkinson wrote: > >>> Correct, Emailer can only use the standard ports (25 for SMTP, 110 >>> for POP), and has no ability for SSL. >> >>> So you can't use Emailer with GMail. >> >> I am wondering whether this limitation has anything to do with my >> use of >> an Airport Card in my laptop, or the way the modem/router are set up? > >No, the GMail issue has nothing to do with anything other than GMail >uses protocols that Emailer can't support.
