I've got some more info:
On this laptop with Debian Testing installed, when I'm using the
network at work, I can't access my POP mail server from Mozilla Mail.
I also can't access the checkout section of any of my online retailers
when using the Mozilla browser. But when I use my dialup ISP, they
both work fine.
So whats in common between connections for POP mail, SSH, CVS, and
retail checkout pages?
