I'm having a problem sending email in Mandrake 8.1. Today I tried to send an email with a file attachment (1.8 mb) and I couldn't send in either Kmail or Mozilla Messenger. When I click on send in either program it appears to be sending the data and then just aborts. Kmail gives me this error message:
Sending failed: a SMTP error occured. Command: CONNECT Response: Error reading socket. The message will stay inthe 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. Note: other messages will also be blocked by this message, as long as it is in the 'outbox' folder. The following transport protocol was used: smtp://shawmail:25 Mozilla Messenger gives an error message of: sending of message failed The funny thing is I can send smaller text messages with no problems it only seems to happen when I try to attach a file. My isp has a limit of 5 mb so I'm well below that with the 1.8 mb file. Can anybody shed some light on what might be the problem and what I can do to fix it?
