Hello,
For the last seven days I've been on Sprint.ca for my internet connection. The helpful folks there gave me smtp.sprint.ca for the smtp (outgoing) mail address. Every letter I have sent was returned to me as 'undeliverable', four days after having been sent.
This morning, after being told by Sprint ("we don't support macintosh with technical service"), that it was "probably a TCP/IP problem" on MY end, I went back and switched the smtp address to "mail.sprint.ca" and all is well. Whaddya know?
I sent letters to a lot of people, so , NO, I haven't turned rude, or disappeared, and i apologize for the rants I may have sent to my LISTSERV digest people regarding "why aren't you remailing my posts?" Now I know. Sorry for the rants, inconveniences, and, invisibility.
It's rather awful to be on an amazing machine (which the Mac is) in a world of PC "techs" whose orthodox reply is "download another Windoze98" or whatever, what a pathetic bunch...
All the Best.
