Re: Mepis and problems with smtp servers

i've got the latest version of Mepis installed, and I have found that

Any clues? Be specific please as my Linux capabilities are limited.

Previous versions worked fine, but the latest is giving me fits.

Thanks...

If it's the same old smtp servers you've been using... then I'd suspect a
typographical error in your setup. Revist the smtp section and make sure
you've spelled everything correctly. I've done this bone-head activity
before... :')
