OK Tim,
Believe the router is a "gateway" router. Maybe not. How would I know?
From my LAN's perspective, I am treating it as my "gateway." All my
clients have
the router's IP addy as their "gateway" on the tcp/ip tab.
In any case, I now have the IP addys I think I need. Some make sense, some
do not.
Q1: I use Eudora. BellSouth seems to be dead to Eudora. A faq lists these
"email clients":
Netscape 4.0, 4.5 to 4.77, 6 or 7
Outlook Express
Outlook 97/98/2K/2K2
Hmm......... But, later on (more faqs) I find a setup procedure for Mozilla
Thunderbird.
So, all you TBird users, please advise. I do like/own Eudora (v5.1.1) and
would like to
continue unless it really is dead. Current plan is to use the Mozy setup
once the channel
goes hot and see what happens.
Q2: Seems the Bellsouth blocks/filters port 25. Believe this is PoPmail
port. Can I switch
Eudora to IMAP and truck on with Bellsouth?
Q3: Bellsouth uses the same server (mail.bellsouth.net) for both inbound
and outbound mail.
Is this normal? I do know that they seem to have extensive spam, junk,
etc, filtering. Perhaps
this is a good thing..... :)
So I check out the "news" server for Bellsouth and find that it is:
(should I choose to do Opera or Agent!)
nxdomain.guide.opendns.com 208.69.32.130
and the server is in San Francisco, CA.
Q4: What's up with this? Are the "news" channels still as polluted as they
were in 1999?
So far, so good. Believe my due diligence is as complete as possible. For now.
I'm off to check out Mozilla TBird......
Please accept my thanks to all who helped with replies and tips. Much
appreciated.
Now I just have to get hold of JE to change an addy and keep List mail flowing!
Best,
Duncan

If you use a gateway router you only need one address. Also, Network will be
semi secured :)
But if you decide to go the way your thinking, they give you a list of
addresses you can use. You can use those addresses anyway you like.
