Hi Sam,
Were you able to access the news server? I got an
"authentication required" and a " What?" and dropped from
the server. Nettamer 1.08 doesn't seem to have a place for a
news password. Also the server identifies as a NNRP server
instead of NNTP.
Mail sending seems to work as does web browsing I'm not
sure about pop3 yet.
Thanks,
Mike
