My girlfriend uses Debian (Sarge) and has a mysterious problem

send e-mail, but she can pull, for months now. Well, she decided
to try Evolution, and it has the reverse problem. It can pull,
but not push.

She is using SMTP and POP.

Is anyone able/willing to propose means to figure this out?


I'd triple-check the SMTP and POP settings in the two clients. It sounds
like T-bird's SMTP server setting is wrong, and it sounds like Evo's POP
setting is wrong. (I know this is basic, and you've probably already
checked this, but just gotta cover all the bases.)

Yeah, I shoulda mentioned that those had both been checked. I've sent
her an e-mail asking for what (if any) error messages she gets, but
I'm going to give her a phone call, as well.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
