Hi! Trying to kill the keyboard, cmayes@adenine.frognet.net produced:
server. All of a sudden, the transfer essentially stopped. Thinking I had gotten a bad connection, I (using wvdial .41) reconnected. Now, nothing would work. No telnet, no W3, no POP3, No IMAP, nothing. In a panic, I fell back on Kppp. It worked for telnet and W3, but the mail transfer was abysmally slow. So, I thought I'd try to modify named.boot
If you have honestly not changed a thing, either your software changed itself (pretty unlikely), your modem/serial port is dying or their modem is dying (but that would not affect only mail) or --- maybe they have/had (transient?) errors with the phone lines and/or their pop-server. However, without debug-output there's nothing we can do but guess. -Wolfgang -- PGP 2 welcome: Mail me, subject "send PGP-key". If you've nothing at all to hide, you must be boring.
