On or about 2/6/04 10:11 PM James Rohde AKA [EMAIL PROTECTED] eruditely mused the following:

I think it's because SBC changes >the IP (dynamically assigned when you sign on) every so often, and if >you're still on, SBC drops the connection. When that (rarely) happens to >me, I just use the Remore Access Control Panel and reconnect. I am not using Remote Access and an on cable but I still get these "network stream errors on different accounts. If there is mail waiting after the error, I just send again and it usually goes through. If not I try later or just let my scheduled connection deal with it. Incidentally, Earthlink who are my ISP, even have an Emailer web page talking about this subject at: < http://support.earthlink.net/mu/1/psc/img/walkthroughs/macintosh/email/clar is_emailer_1.1/5383.psc.html> but I don't think their resolution is really the issues for most people, even me using Earthlink. The following is on a New Zealand ISP web page <http://www.clear.net.nz/documentation/howto/mac/faqs/email/email2c.html> but refers to CE v1.x but some of you more experienced folk might be able to decipher these comments relative to CE 2.x. OTOH the error may not be for the same reasons. quote >>> Network Stream Errors Older versions of Claris Emailer running under MacTCP (Classic Networking, as it is called under System 7.5.3) typically reported errors such as "The connection timed out." or "The connection came halfway up and failed" when it was unable to connect to an Internet mail account or SMTP Server. However, when running Open Transport, Claris Emailer often returned errors including "Network Stream Error", -3198 and various -32xx errors because of conflicts between Claris Emailer 1.0v1, 1.0v2 and beta versions of Open Transport. Claris Emailer 1.0v3 is fully compatible with Open Transport 1.1 on 68k and PPC Macintosh computers. Claris Emailer 1.0v3 will return the above errors with Open Transport 1.1 if the addresses under the Internet Service Entry are not entered correctly. Specifically, an address that does not include the server name under Email Account can result in these errors. Another reason you could get a "network stream error" is if Claris Emailer 1.0 is configured to use the Internet Configuration System (ICS), with a check in the box: Use Internet Config, but the Internet Config extension is not in the Extensions folder, the result is a "network stream error." To fix this problem, run the Internet Config application and from the Extension menu select Save Extension. If you don't want to enable the Internet Config extension, you can tell Claris Emailer to not use the internet config by deselecting the box: Use Internet Config in the Internet Services Entry window and fill in all the fields manually. This is not a problem with Claris Emailer 1.1. If the Internet Config extension is not installed, then the check box is grayed out. end quote >>>> Cheers Karl Karl Webmaster for: IAS, Irish Airmail Society: http://members.aol.com/karlfranzw/AirmailSociety.html ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe send a mail message with a SUBJECT line of "unsubscribe" to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> or <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
