Thanks. Sending mail now works, but I'm still having problems with receiving
mail. I'm not really sure what to fill in the "Host" space so I've left it
blank. When I click on to get my mail the message at the bottom reads,
"Proceeding transfering for ... ". It will just stay like that and nothing
will happen. Any ideas?
Thanks for your help!
