I am on broadband and have retained my old email address and use this at least once a month via dial-up to retain it, as it saves a lot of bother, if one has hundreds OS contacts to have another address.
However just recently I cannot send out emails, but only receive and surf the net.
To check this out I have a laptop(G3) which has the same dial up and this works perfectly well here on my home phone line as well as at a neighbour"s.
So the difference is that on the G4, in network, for TCP/IP the password is normally a 6 figure number, and for what ever reason on the G$ this has extended itself, no matter what I do to correct, to at least 12 digits,and hence at my provider it would be incorrect.
I have deleted and altered but on apply it reverts to at least 12 numbers. I have deleted and restarted but it still occurs.
I have just done 2 days ago an install and archive but to no avail.
I presume one cure would be to copy my HD entirely on to an external, and reformat etc, but seems a little over the top to do, which would cure it.
Any ideas anyone
Regards
