Thanks for that Ranulph. The only issue I would have with that is that
I really would prefer a 15" screen (although I find my iPad's screen
remarkably easy to see).

Hi Sam,
That seems to have done the trick as far as Internet access is
concerned. I am obliged for the advice. Sadly the machine is still
exhibiting terminal tendencies. It looks as if the video is
knackered, which I believe would mean a new logic board.
Looking at the age of the PowerBook I fear that spending any money
to repair it would not be a brilliant idea.
With luck I can extract the data from the hard disk and that's more
valuable than the computer.
It's been a delightful machine to own and I shall miss it like mad.
Not really the time to be buying a replacement.
Best wishes,
Martin

Hi Martin
That error message would suggest your mac's unable to connect to
the server, could be either a temporary failure or a problem with
your internet connection. One thing to make sure is that you
restart after setting your date & time back to normal. If you
start up with an odd time, say 1970, your computer won't be able
to unlock your keychain, so won't be able to access any saved
passwords, making SSL communication difficult.
Try restarting or logging out and back in, see if that helps.
Also you could use mail.me.com rather than mail.mac.com
