[ubuntu-uk] Seamonkey1.1.12

[Adrian]

Hi,

I have had a number of problems with bt mail connects for people and
most boil down to the error 553 issue. This is where bt need to verify
that the email address you are using is yours and verified so you don't
go spamming. The second reason was that you need to authenticate with
username an password when sending. I do not know where this is on
seamonkey, sorry.

Interesting.

Up until now I've been using Debian Etch on my servers because I had a  
bad experience with Ubuntu Server a few years back.

Maybe it's time to look at this again - are there any major  
differences apart from the package versions?

Cheers,

M.

Last week I upgraded to 1.1.12 with no immediate problems but after a
couple of days I couldn't send message's as I was informed that the
system could not accept my password. After much cursing and rebooting it
accepted my password and stopped playing *silly buggers*

Yesterday afternoon it refused to connect  to smtp.btinternet.com and
still does however Gmail, Evolution and Hotmail all connect OK.

Any help would be appreciated
