My problem is not with the receipt of e-mail. It is with the sending of e-mail. Also, I use e-mail 6 days a week, 52 weeks a year and have been doing so for over 15 years. I only had a similar problem some years ago -- I believe. However, I have an update: I just finished speaking with tech support for 1&1.com. He changed the setting from "Secure to regular port (STARTTLS)" to "Regular" and he changed the port from 587 to 25. With these changes, I am now able to send e-mail, although it is now no longer encrypted. His second level support thought my firewall or anti-virus was causing this problem, but that makes no sense because both I and my wife began having the problem at the same time even though we are using different firewalls and anti-virus programs. (And someone on this list also reported having the same problem!!!) He promised to look into it further. -- Avi Avram Sacks, using The Bat! ver. 6.0.0.28 on Win 7 Pro ________________________________________________ Current version is 7.1 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
