You will not be able to receive mail from the internet directly, as Earthlink blocks incoming port 25.. You must use their servers. They started this about 2 years ago..
I guess this is not a problem for people on broadband. I have no problem.
I don't know what the deal is here Ken, but consider yourself lucky. On several forums, people have reported this, and in fact, Earthlink's own C/S dept says that both in and outbound 25 is blocked.
