For a very long time, I have been redirecting the mail coming on my
bicycle club website to the club president, using a script. The script
connects, waits a little bit for the ISDN connection to establish (5 s)
collects the mail, thinks about it for a while (this permit filters to
work and action a "redirect to the President" action) and sends the mail
out to the President.
This was all right until I stopped using an ISDN PPP connection (SAGEM
ISDN PPP) on the computer hosting the router and used instead ADSL via
Ethernet cables, an Airport base station (router) and an ADSL bridge. PPP
is not installed anymore on the mac. The base station uses PPPoE to
connect to the ISP, acts as router and is a DHCP server for the
computers. Now I get an appleevent stuff or some equivalent message, and
it does not even try to connect.
The script is below:
--
PPP connect
set endTime to (current date) + 10
repeat while (current date) < endTime
end repeat
tell application "Claris Emailer"
with timeout of (10 * minutes) seconds -- timeout after 10 minutes
connect to "Abeille Cyclotourisme" with checking
connect to "Abeille cyclo (mac)" with sending
end timeout
end tell
PPP disconnect

What can I do to resume my mail redirections to my President ?
[PowerMac 6100, Mac OS 8.1, the connection goes through TCP/IP, PPP not
used, Emailer 2.0v3]
