Then I suspect that either your Usenet a/c or your IMAP a/c is not using
the default o/g server. Look under :
Edit / Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings
then select each of the accounts in turn (by clicking on its name
in the left-hand pane) and look at the very lowest setting in
the right-hand pane where you should see :
Outgoing Server (SMTP) [default]
Look to see if any are other than [default]
Yes, there are two listed. One is smtp.purdue.edu (default) and the
other is smtp.googlemail.com. I've discovered that if I set the
googlemail server for outgoing as my default for my Purdue account, it
works. Curious. Does this mean I should always have only one o/g
server? If so, why does SM allow me to list many? I've always had the
two servers listed.
Not necessarily, I've got two and it's not a problem. But some ISPs are
finicky, won't let you use anyone else's SMTP server.
Bottom line -- if you can get it to work, go with that.
Thank you for your help. I now recall that at one time I had the two
servers in the opposite order, so perhaps that caused the problem. I
have no idea how to change that order of listing.
In any case, it all works now, so thanks.
