Help! Sending mail But not Receiving mail!

Post by Kim N » Mon, 25 Sep 1995 04:00:00



I am able to send mail from my Linux as well as running Netscape!  However,
my elm are still able to read my mail from my ISP's mailserver.  I use PPP to
connect to my ISP.  

Then I tried:
popclient -u kng mail.earthlink.net

the systems respond me with a "Enter mailserver password: " prompt. I entered
my
password for my mailbox as usual. After two seconds the systems respond:

error reading socket
: Unknown error

What've I done wrong?!  Thanks for any help in Advance!

Try using popclient -3 -u username -p password xxx.xxx.xxx (Where
xxx.xxx.xxx is the ip# of your mailhost).

Good luck!
