Motel error message

2010-10-31 Thread jlarosa
Mornin' Bats!

I have the misfortune to be stuck in a motel for the next several days and am 
communicating via a threadbare data cable provided by the motel.  This place is 
too old to have WIFI.  Anyway, I tried to use TB! and found that I had no 
trouble fetching messages but when I tried to SEND a message I got the 
following response from TB!:

!10/30/2010, 21:16:48: SEND  - Server reports it is not ready, reply: imp10 
smtp.charter.net MjA5LjE1NS4xNzcuMjUy You must connect from Charter IP space.  
E1110 

Anybody have any idea what this means and how I can get past it?

TIA,
Jack

The message is pretty clear that the server will not accept traffic from an
IP that's not assigned to Charter, so if the motel uses some other ISP,
there's no way to get around it. If sending an Email is urgent, you might
try using a webmail interface instead of TB -- or opening a gmail or other
account that WOULD accept traffic from the motel's ISP.

Actually, there might be - try enabling SMTP authentication, many ISPs
allow you to send the message then.

Alas no combination of tics at ACCOUNTPROPERTIESSEND MAIL(Authentication) 
would allow me to send mail.  I guess I'll just have to continue using the 
Charter server from Firefox.  Inelegant, true, but it gets the job done.

My thanks to all who tried to help.
