Escape character is '^]'. 220 mx.gmail.com ESMTP 6sm1647118wrh that means it is able to connect but theres some configuration issue. u can come out of that by press ctrl and ']' if it doesnt that means ur ISP is blocking it HTH Arun wmeler wrote:
1) Thanks everyone! Still working this... 2) Did the error message I posted earlier (which I got from kmail) mean anything to anybody? Here it is again, just in case:
Sending failed: Timeout on server smtp.gmail.com The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport protocol was used: wmeler@gmail.com
That last line looks like the key to solving this problem, but I don't know what it means.
-- Cheers, wmeler
