Re: IP Chains Rules
I had the same thing with bezeqint on ISDN. Everything went well until they installed a POP proxy (MiraPoint). I know that Internet Gold uses the same equipment and have the same problems with few of their customers. Fortunately, I have overcome this issue and can advise you to do one of the following: 1. Call inetgold and ask their support personell to tell you the IP address of the exact mail server you need to connect to. 2. Play with your MTU/MRU settings - after a while bezeqint blocked direct access to the POP servers by forwarding them to the proxy using their firewalls, and changing my MTU to 1152 (or was it 716?) did the trick. Your MTU is probably 1500 or 1499 if you didn't change it, so you can have a go with this.
