Sounds like configuration of your browser to work with the connection - as
long as you say you are connected.  In Netscape 4.xx it is under Edit, then
Preferences..., then set your Identity and Mail Servers correctly.  You must
have a different profile for each connection - different for your dialup and
your DSL.  Do a search in your finder for "profile manager".  Open it and set
your profile.

Mine is set to my login name on Earthlink, my password that I gave to
Earthlink, and the other settings that Earthlink gives: mine was
mail.earthlink.net

I have a dialup connection with earthlink.  A DSL connection should not be
that different except for maybe the outgoing mail server name.  You can access
the same email account for each profile, but you need a different "outgoing
mail server" for each type of connection, I'll bet.  Hope this helps.  If not
let me know what your luck is and what you have tried.
