Is there anything that has to be done under 10.2 to make smtpauth work? Several weeks ago, someone suggested that using smtpauth (this is Earthlink if that makes any difference), would allow one to send mail from servers other than the one owned by Earthlink. I tried it and it worked wonderfully; I could still send from home and when I was in a hotel with a wireless (really - neat!) connection available, I sent from that with no problem. Last night I installed 10.2. Everything went relatively well, except that in Archive & Install it wouldn't let me preserve users and network settings (the button wasn't active - I don't know why). So I just did Archive & Install and then moved all the folders from my old user folder to the new one. When I first started E'rageX and tried to get email, it couldn't connect to the mail server (I'm online using an Airport, so all the "new" computer had to do was connect to that, not get me onto the Earthlink server). I gnashed my teeth, swore, etc, and then decided to try changing my account id from just the part before the @ sign to the whole email address. That worked and I can get email. Then when I tried to send a message, it said that authentication had failed. I double checked by typing in the account id and password again but it still didn't work. I even tried putting just the part before the @ sign in as id, since that was what I'd had before. No luck. So I've reverted to the regular smtp server for the moment, but I would like to get smtpauth back before the next trip. Any ideas?
On the plus side - Jaguar fixed my previous printing problem, and with no intervention from me at all :-). I just printed something for the first time since installing and it just printed - didn't ask me to set up the printer or anything (pre-10.2 the first time I printed after starting up or plugging in the printer I'd have to do two tries to get it to work). -- Jan Martel in Davis, CA IBook 500; System 10.2, 9.2.2 -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
