At times you might have to do a reboot after doing what has to get done.
Some times the computer doesn't do what you might want it to do until you do 
a reboot.
If you have any more questions just ask them, either myself or someone else 
will send you an answer soon.

PEACE

 John, Victor,  and All,

I deleted the message that had been stuck in my outbox and my e-mail 
 was
 fine for several hours until early this morning when I tried to send a
 message and I
 got the host cannot be found message and the message was in my outbox.  I
 deleted it and I kept getting the error message when I tried to send mail.

My head was a bit better and I was able to go to the Cox site and find
 the correct POP and server settings.  It looked like the SMTP setting had
 somehow gotten changed.  I put in what I found for the settings and my 
 mail
 has been okay for more than 12 hours now.  Knock on wood!

Could someone try to explain about host and e-mail?  As I mentioned,
 , when I got the host cannot be found error message on previous occasions, 
 I
 couldn't receive or send any mail at all and this one seems to have only
 been with
 some sent mail.

Thanks,

 Margaret

 Victor,

Thank you very much for the good instructions.  I now seem to be only
 getting one copy of all messages.  The bad news is that,after I sent my
 original message, and it looked like I was getting mail again, a message 
 I
 sent on its way got stuck in the outbox and and got the same invalid user
 name or
 password message asking me to type in my password that I was getting the
 17
 hours or so when I wasn't getting
 or able to send mail.  Now, I'm
 getting mail along with a The host 'amtp.east.cox.net' could not be
 found.
 Please verify
 that you have entered the server name correctly error message   with OE.
 I'm receiving test messages I send myself, but that one message is stuck
 in
 the outbox.

 The 'amtp before the east.cox.net' doesn't sound familiar.  I'm also
 confused because usually when I get the host cannot be found message, I
 can't send or receive any mail.

I wasn't clear when I said outage and I apologize if I mislead you.
 As far as I know, there was no power outage at my place and I meant mail
 delivery problem.  There might have been a power outage since we've had
 unsettled weather.  For whatever reason, I didn't hear the UPS beeping.

I haven't had a chance to tackle the problem with the message stuck in
 the outbox or to call Cox.

I apologize if this message isn't very clear-my head is still not 
 good.

Thanks again,

 Margaret

 Hi Margaret,

 If, as you say, the power went out midway through downloading your
 messages,
 then the computer didn't have time to transmit the fact that it had been
 downloaded, and so the server assumed you had not gotten the messages.

 Once your computer downloads your e-mail, it sends the information to the
 mail server, letting it know that the messages did come down, and that it
 shouldn't re-send them again.

 This happens quite often during power outages.

 Whether this was a result of your e-mail problems, I don't think so, it
 sounds more like the power outage knocked your computer for a loop, and 
 it
 literally couldn't remember what it did before the outage.

 To change the leave a copy on the server option, go into the accounts in
 the
 tools menu, highlight the account and go to properties.

 Control+tab over to the advanced tab, and it will be below the time out
 settings on that tab.

 Make sure the checkmark is unchecked, then go to apply then ok, and it
 won't
 leave a copy of the messages on the server anymore.

 I should note that this will not delete any messages that are there
 already,
 just the new ones you receive from that change on.

 If you want to delete those messages you'll have to go back into the
 account
 through webmail and delete them manually.

Maybe they changed their security settings for the POP3/SMTP as SBC did last 
year from 110 to 465 for the pop3and for the SMTP think it was 25 to 995, we 
got emails notifying of the changes and how to make the changes in outlook 
express. If you keep copies of your emails on your server then this could 
explain why you got duplicates...

Subject: [Blind-Computing] Duplicate Messages


 Hi All,

I couldn't send or receive any e-mail from just after 11:00 p.m last
 night until about 4:00 p.m this afternoon and was getting an error message
 that my Cox password or user name was invalid.  The second Cox tech 
 support
 person I spoke with was much more helpful than the first one and talked me
 through the steps to see if all the account, server, connection settings
 were correct.  It didn't seem to take and I'd already taken up a lot of 
 his
 time.  I thought I could remember the steps to try again on my own in case 
 I
 had made a typo while I was on the phone with him.

I did try again and  it may be coincidental, but mail started coming 
 in.
 The bad news was that it was over 1,000 messages and mail from the 18th to
 when the outage occurred that I had already deleted in Outlook Express was
 downloaded again.  Plus, new messages had duplicates of every message.

Cox said they couldn't trouble shoot OE.  My tech can normally fix some
 computer problems remotely, but their password to do the remote wasn't
 working and the person who could fix it was unavailable.  One of his
 assistants suggested looking at web mail to see if there were duplicates
 there which she said would be a Cox problem.  I only got 1 of everything
 with web mail.

There was another outage after the mail started coming in and that made
 things even worse.  No one at my tech's will be available until 9:00 a.m. 
 I
 may have inadvertently changed a setting.

Could anyone suggest settings in OE 6 to check for Cox?  I'm running XP
 Home, JAWS 9, and IE 7.

Also, does anyone know of any programs that are JAWS friendly that will
 find duplicate messages and delete them?  I'm fighting a migraine and 
 can't
 think straight and just want this nightmare to end.

Thanks,

 Margaret

Re: [Blind-Computing] Duplicate Messages

2008-06-23 Thread Margaret Thomas
There may be copies kept on the server.  Win 98  is technically on my 
home network.  My tech had set it up that way so duplicates of everything 
wouldn't pour in in the event the XP Home was down and I needed e-mail 
enough to risk it on the Win 98.  I haven't used the '98 for ages and maybe 
now not leaving copies on the server might be the way to go.  Is the setting 
under tools, account and properties?  Sorry, I barely know my own name right 
now.

I did change the OE settings not to check for mail at startup and not to 
check for mail every to try to lessen the amount of mail coming in in hopes 
someone had suggestions.

I didn't get any e-mail from Cox about changing security settings, but I 
do know one time the Cox tech had to come because they hadn't alerted 
customers to a setting change that needed to be made or at least I never got 
the message.

The weird thing is that the error message I keep getting was exactly 
like one I got several days ago when Cox's e-mail was totally down for 
several hours in both my state and a neighboring one, but this time Cox was 
reporting no conductivity problems in my area.

Thanks,

Margaret

Maybe they changed their security settings for the POP3/SMTP as SBC did last

got emails notifying of the changes and how to make the changes in outlook
express. If you keep copies of your emails on your server then this could
explain why you got duplicates...

 Hi All,

I couldn't send or receive any e-mail from just after 11:00 p.m last
 night until about 4:00 p.m this afternoon and was getting an error message
 that my Cox password or user name was invalid.  The second Cox tech
 support
 person I spoke with was much more helpful than the first one and talked me
 through the steps to see if all the account, server, connection settings
 were correct.  It didn't seem to take and I'd already taken up a lot of
 his
 time.  I thought I could remember the steps to try again on my own in case
 I
 had made a typo while I was on the phone with him.

I did try again and  it may be coincidental, but mail started coming
 in.
 The bad news was that it was over 1,000 messages and mail from the 18th to
 when the outage occurred that I had already deleted in Outlook Express was
 downloaded again.  Plus, new messages had duplicates of every message.

Cox said they couldn't trouble shoot OE.  My tech can normally fix some
 computer problems remotely, but their password to do the remote wasn't
 working and the person who could fix it was unavailable.  One of his
 assistants suggested looking at web mail to see if there were duplicates
 there which she said would be a Cox problem.  I only got 1 of everything
 with web mail.

There was another outage after the mail started coming in and that made
 things even worse.  No one at my tech's will be available until 9:00 a.m.
 I
 may have inadvertently changed a setting.

Could anyone suggest settings in OE 6 to check for Cox?  I'm running XP
 Home, JAWS 9, and IE 7.

Also, does anyone know of any programs that are JAWS friendly that will
 find duplicate messages and delete them?  I'm fighting a migraine and
 can't
 think straight and just want this nightmare to end.

Thanks,

Hi Margaret,

If, as you say, the power went out midway through downloading your messages, 
then the computer didn't have time to transmit the fact that it had been 
downloaded, and so the server assumed you had not gotten the messages.

Once your computer downloads your e-mail, it sends the information to the 
mail server, letting it know that the messages did come down, and that it 
shouldn't re-send them again.

This happens quite often during power outages.

Whether this was a result of your e-mail problems, I don't think so, it 
sounds more like the power outage knocked your computer for a loop, and it 
literally couldn't remember what it did before the outage.

To change the leave a copy on the server option, go into the accounts in the 
tools menu, highlight the account and go to properties.

Control+tab over to the advanced tab, and it will be below the time out 
settings on that tab.

Make sure the checkmark is unchecked, then go to apply then ok, and it won't 
leave a copy of the messages on the server anymore.

I should note that this will not delete any messages that are there already, 
just the new ones you receive from that change on.

If you want to delete those messages you'll have to go back into the account 
through webmail and delete them manually.
