i use my @home e-mail address so that shouldn't be a problem. i'll give that a try but i have the sistinct feeling that i've tried that already.
thanks, tho! -----Original Message----- From: Dexter Graphic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 10:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [EUG-LUG:59] RE: 8-bit MIME and Evolution I couldn't get Evolution to send mail through Prodigy at first either but after fiddling around with my settings and giving up, the next time I rebooted it worked. Here are the settings that worked for me on Prodigy: In Tools / Mail Settings / Edit Account / Sending Mail, I have SMTP selected as the server type, secure connection is turned off, and requires authentication is turned off. The only other thing that may be a factor is on the identity tab: are you using you @home e-mail address under required information? Many services check this before they will allow you to send mail. If you put some other e-mail address in there (like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) ATT may not allow you use their smtp server.
