JRS,
Is there any way you can send me a "focused" link?
I could not get Eudora to pop up in the right-side box, but I did get
several hits when doing a global search for "Eudora." I am still
reading/printing these...............

Hmmmn. I use mine with my iMac, and use Thunderbird on my PC to access
it.. Not sure why yours is giving you issues.
BTW, on those ATT help pages I sent you to, I did see one where it told
you how to set up Eudora for email.

Facts do not cease to exist just
because they are ignored.

JRS,
Thank you for the shout. Yes, what you shared is how I have both Eudora
and Thunderbird set up.
Eudora rcvs email , but records error(s) with each
interchange. Thunderbird simply errors immediately on "check" w/o rcvng
any email.
I will again triple-check my program settings.
Is there a possibility that my router might be intercepting/screwing with
this new use of SSL and/or ports 465 and 995? I will also re-scan my
router's activity log........... :)
As jmaccraw suggested, I suspect that there may be yet another device in
the chain that is not yet playing nice. Still checking.
I did fully expect this situation to happen BTW. I have never had good
relations with ATT; and, why my first xdsl use back in SoCal was after
Verizon bought/absorbed General Telephone.
I needed something else to do today anyway. LOL!
Best,
Duncan
