Send an email to snipped-for-privacy@outerspace.nothing-here.co.tw or something equally obscure, see if (after a few tens of minutes) your mail server bounces it back as being undeliverable - tests your immediate coupling to your mail server.

I got an error when I tried to reply to your email from my newsreader; I've just posted from my mail prog - no error.... yet

Could something have interfered with my settings? I've no idea what they shold be or shere to find them or what to do ...
Mary
Now, just why would anyone want to interfere with *your* settings? :-)
Seriously, I sent you an e-mail about 15 minutes ago. Nothing has bounced. Your ISP is not showing any problems so, if you do not see it, you could try IMAIL to check your incoming messages. If you see the e-mail on the web but are still not downloading it in your usual way, try speaking to your ISP as some of the settings (e.g. addresses) will be specific to them.
I'm the same with Pipex. Their site says nothing to report, but 123-reg says they're updating the servers this weekend.
Thanks, Howard. It hasn't arrived. All sorts of helpful folk are trying with no result.
I don't know what IMAIL is.
The zetnet ng people are also helping, it seems that there could be a problem at base, which is comforting because it will be dealt with :-)

If you want to test your POP3 mail connection in a way that eliminates any settings in your software, you could follow the first part of the procedure described here:
IMAIL is what Zetnet call Web-mail. You can access your mail through the web. Have a look at:-

All fixed now - good old Zetnet!
Apparently the anti-virus product had got itself stuck.
Mary
It was a suggestion to try and help you diagnose your mail problem, if you don't want to try and help yourself then why should we bother?
Why exactly don't you want to go to Zetnet's Web-mail page?
I don't think Howard would have taken exception to my comment, we have an understanding :-)
In the event it wouldn't have helped because it was a temporary fault in Zetnet's system. It was resolved quickly (they always resolve problems quickly). My original concern was that it might be a fault with my system, even if I'd wanted to take up Howie's suggestion it wouldn't have been possible because of the current fault so it wouldn't have helped in the diagnosis of the problem.
I don't like receiving/sending mail by that method. Idon't like football or vodka either, it's a personal thing, we're all different :-)
Mary
I didn't take exception to the comment. It takes a lot more than that to upset me.
Neither do I, I hate webmail, but I'd quite happily go to a webmail page if it helped diagnose a problem.
I realised the problem had been solved, I did read to the end of the thread as it was then. It's just that your response came across as a bit short and I was wondering why.
I was concerned, I assumed it was a problem with my pc therefore my fault and Ihate being found out as imperfect :-)
As for Howard, I've tried for years to irritate him but I fail there too :-))) He has the same effect on me ...
Mary
*Two* confessions on one day. Are you feeling unwell? :-)
No - just elated :-))))))))))))))))
And I always say when I'm wrong. It's just quite rare ... you'll be able to relate to that ...
Mary
Close. In my case, it is not rare; it is never. :-))
One saying I like:- "I used to be conceited. Now I'm perfect" :-)
I thought you'd invented it.
Ah... wrong again!
