Hi Gary, >>>>>>>>>>>I set up an account for this list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - through my >>>>>>>>>>>host, but couldn't reply to the confirmation email from Thunderbird on Linux at home. It would send, and go into my outbox, but nothing would ever come of it. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Check out your ISP's email policy and what you have the outgoing server set as in Thunderbird. I had a similar problem when I was using a free email account and had to change to another email provider. The latest version of Thunderbird will only let you send to POP3 servers other than one main SMTP server ( I think that's how it works). As my main email is an SMTP server, when I updated Thunderbird I lost the ability to set up a second SMTP one and the free email provider I was using, Fastmail, doesn't allow POP3 connections to its free accounts. So, I can now only send from my Fastmail account via their web server which sounds like your problem... -- Best wishes, Ian ____________ Ian W.
