Re: [newbie] Kontact problems
Elwyn, Right, well, I've got somewhere! Great, but it didn't help here. I changed my setup and it still happened exactly as before. I managed to mangle the whole mail system, but hey, saved me having to delete them. One day I'll get some of them back, when I work out what I did... Anyway. If I tell it not to delete messages from the server then there is no problem! Can anyone add that to the equation and help me/us??

[newbie] Kontact problems
Hi Folks I've got several mail accounts setup in Kontact but am having a few problems with collecting email. I'm on ADSL via a router, so any machine that is on the network is on the internet. I'm using Mandrake 10 and Kontact for email, news, etc. Most times whenever I check email I get an error message that says Could not login to pop.freeuk.com The server terminated the connection immediately As I have several accounts, i get one of these error boxes per account that it fails to check. It doesn't happen all the time, but quite a lot these days. For example if I check email when it logs in, I get it, but 30 seconds later it could be fine, or not, depending on how it feels. I can't find any pattern other than that message. I don't know how to fix it, I don't know where it is getting its information from but during this time I am connected to IRC, MSN, ICQ and www ok, so the connection is there and up. Help!
