Hence, it may not always be that our local computer settings or the local software settings have worked for sometimes years, then suddenly no more; it may well be that the remote Email and other servers have and are changing their settings, usually in response to changing standards, server attacks or general security, etc, etc. Joe WindowGroup/Knoxville TN ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Re: can't get mail
I did call my ISP and got T'ed off. They said they don't support Seamonkey. When I did some questioning she said they weren't trained for seamonkey and could give me over to someone who could and ask if I wanted that. Is said of course. When I got there it was a charge for the support. Then I got T'ed again and ask for a supervisor. He said there is a charge for this support. I said, I was told 5 years ago support is free. OH I don't know I guess they hire folks that don't know nothing then when they can't support you they send you to the ones how can but charge. Back to your question I suppose all settings are correct, who or why would they have changed since yesterday. Apparently ATT tech support don't know. I guess I'm left hanging out. Beauregard T.

They don't need to know what program you're using. If they press you, say T-Bird or something. You need to know the correct settings -- server URL, port number, SSL on or off, that kind of thing, and that's not particular to any program.

Call them back and if they ask again, tell them you're using Outlook Express. That (and possibly Outlook or Thunderbird) is all their scripts tell them. When they ask questions, feign OE. It's not that you can't get mail with SeaMonkey, it's that their scripts don't mention anything else.

Re: can't get mail
ATT frequently makes network changes. They never tell their support people. It would not matter anyways because tech support has no idea what 465 is or what SSL means. Most of them use web mail and are amazed when told that there is another kind of mail. I have found that if you keep calling back you get a different person each time.

From your IP address I guessed that you had previously been on swbell and were on an old RBACK2.WACOTX SWBELL.NET switch. You probably received a notice sometime back that your settings would change (maybe it got caught in a spam filter). Anyway, the settings I gave you have been in effect for quite some time; they probably just got around to upgrading the switch.
