Thanks Marghanita.
Update on this.
1. I had no net connection for about 18hrs. When I
was able to call TPG they suggested I change the
'modulation type' setting in my modem (DSL-502T)
from multi-mode to G.dmt.
This fixed the net connection problem.
2. I have a mynetfone VOIP adapter. By
disconnecting the adapter from my network (modem
-> VOIP adapter -> hub -> PCs) I can now upload
files to my online storage and send this e-mail
-which is longer than 150 words.
It would appear there is something going on :))
but exactly what I'm not sure. The mynetfone
adapter works otherwise and my connection is okay
when it's plugged in *but* my e-mail and uploading
is seriously restricted when it's connected.
Any other assistance/suggestions would be most
appreciated.
Regards,
Patrick

Hi All,
I'm using Thunderbird 2.0.0.16 on Dapper.
On the odd occasion I've had these problems, but today it's been *all*
day.
I cannot send e-mail with more than a few lines - approx 150 words.
It's as if there is a problem sending e-mail only as I can upload
files, so it's not like I've got a problem with the ISP blocking
anything outgoing of any real size.
Though it could be the ISPs outgoing email server - this is setup under
preferences/account settings. But perhaps your ISP is tightening up
their systems.
Has anyone any ideas that may be of assistance.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Patrick
