[ubuntu-za] Axxess smtp issues on Ubuntu

[FransIT]

Well....not using while using Thunderbird....though receiving pop3 email 
from our isp got a problem through our citadel mail server. I had to 
switch to fetchmail for retrieval, and now have more control over when 
it gets done, but still they also just told me they tested with outlook 
and it work fine...apparently as long as they can work with proprietary 
programs and have no problem, they are not fixing anything.

You might like to test the line when you have problems though, ping the 
mail server, run a speed test at speedtest.net, use pingtest.net for 
more thorough testing.

  When working on a computer you have to know enough:
  To fake what you don't know.
  Google what you can't fake.
  How (and when) to 'motivate' the computer to do what Google won't tell.
