Re: Exim & SMTP

Ali,

	Try removing the specification of the smtp server in your
Communicator preferences - leave it blank. If this works, good. For an
explanation of this phenomenon, see the reply I received just yesterday on
this list for my message with the subject "Exim, Pine, and smtp-server".

Jor-el
