Albert, have you turned the computer on?? ;-) What is happening when you 
try to get your mail?? Can you browse??


From the information you've supplied, it is difficult to provide a 
useful answer.

That's not a bad suggestionwouldn't be the first time that an 
overnight update (from SM 2.0.5 to SM 2.0.6 for example) has caused a

More likely, we all find that the various
services we use are and have changed their server settings such as ports,
Email settings, et al quite a bit.

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.

I don't understand the point you are trying to make. But yes, news and
email is completely different.


Send Unsent in SM does not differentiate - I propose it should.

I see. Sounds reasonable to me. But I am not a send later person, and
so would find no reason for that. However, it may be useful to a person
who works offline, then later sends en masse.

Or is your SM E-mail failing to connect at all but gives
no error message?

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.

So you lie to them. 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. 
Sure, they lay things out differently, but the basic data are the same.

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.

(Aside: which is all ridiculous because the server settings for any
given ISP are always the same.)

If the accent is an American dialect, you are reaching a minimum-wage
person with no real skills. If the accent is, um, Indian, you are
reaching a person with moderate skills who is actually in Bangladore,
but who must still follow the script.

Can you get to your mail via sbcglobal's webmail interface?  (I'm sure
they have one.)

Oh, and check your firewall to make sure you haven't blocked yourself.

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.  One out of ten will
be somewhat computer literate and able to help.

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. The ATT tech should have checked your settings
(regardless of email client). Glad it works for you. :-)
