In Thunderbird, server settings for this account Connection Security: None Authentication Method: Password, transmitted insecurely
I'm not sure what you mean be "ISP lines" All this is done from home on my own Desktop via my own Naked DSL account with IInet and their BOB2 Modem. ----- Original Message ----- From: kfos...@tpg.com.au To: Cc: Sent:Wed, 15 Aug 2012 12:45:48 +1000 Subject:Re: [SLUG] Cannot receive email I defined my email account on the new version of Thunderbird but cannot receive any mail. I spent a long time on the phone with iinet support trying to sort this out. No success. Each time I try to get mail I get an error message to the effect that iinet has received and rejected the password. I can SEND mail from Thunderbird (via iinet). I just can't receive mail. look at the encryption settings for the password. You might need to send it using a different option than what you are using. Generally send is unprotected except when you send via your ISP when not using the ISP's lines, eg you send via 'mail.tpg.com.au' at home and then when at work it fails.
