Inigo,
Acting on a hunch, I disconnected from the Net, then tried to set the
mailserver as cal.vsnl.net.in (both for SMTP & POP3) from
mail.flashmail.com...and what do you know?? Netscape says
"cal.vsnl.net.in is not known" .. :))
Set the mailserver when you are online and this error will not
happen...pls ignore the junk I posted previously...
HTH,
--Indra
