Dear List,

Are there more people who are using evolution with kde and the new suse 10.3. distro ?

I have this very strange problem.. I can not check in or out any mail from any pop/stmp server . The program just tries it for several minutes and then says it can't reach the host..

I have no trouble using this evolution in this way. Are you sure that you are selecting the correct options? I think it must be a secure connection. I think evolution has defaulted to this for quite a while. It requires a certificate on the pop host. Have you connected to the same pop server in the past with evolution configured in the same way?

Can you telnet to the pop host?

telnet pophost pop3

You should get something like:

Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx... Connected to pophost. Escape character is '^]'. +OK POP3 pophost. v7.59 server ready

Replace pophost with your pop server name.

Thank you! .. I changed the pop connection encryption to SSL and now it is working (actually, this was also said in the gmail's instruction web-pages, so I should have rtm). .. I still have a problem with the smtp server though.. I have tried every kind of encyption option (none,SSL,TLS), but evolution is not able to send any mail.. ("connection timed out").
