See if you can login with your email address and password here: http://www.xibase.com/webmail

 

[Squiggy]

Yep. it worked there.

 

[fury]

Hmm... So you tried the login as both a @ and a + joining your username and xibase.com?

I think I remember you having this same problem with our previous host. Try with a %

 

[Squiggy]

huh?

 

[Squiggy]

It stopped working during the server change. It worked fine till then. I turned it off for a while till the change was complete and it didn't work since then.

 

[fury]

Try just xibase.com for the mail servers

 

[Gonz]

[email protected]/mail.xibase.com/password

 

[fury]

That's what he said he was using.

 

[Squiggy]

It doesn't work. I tried using my ISP for the SMTP and I tried using mail.xibase. It was working fine prior to the server change and not since...

 

[Gonz]

Have you completely deleted that account & reestablished it? Unlikely but it may still be looking for the old info.

 

[fury]

Do you have another email client you can try the login with by any chance?

 

[Squiggy]

OE is taboo. I'll stay with Eudora and check my xibase via webmail.

 

[fury]

I thought you used a Mac... Outlook Express has a Mac version now?

 

[Squiggy]

OE has always had a Mac version. Its evil. It trys to take over the computer.

I only use the xibase as a backup for my regular mail. Its no bigee.

 

[fury]

I don't know if these menus are the same for your version or not but here goes nothing. These same settings worked for me using my address and login...

Tools->Options
Getting Started
Real Name: (your name)
Return address: [email protected]
Mail server (incoming): mail.xibase.com
Login name: [email protected]
SMTP server (outgoing): mail.xibase.com
[x] Allow authentication (checked)

 

[Gonz]

SMTP server (outgoing): mail.xibase.com

Doesn't work for me. Link it thru the usual SMTP.

 

[Squiggy]

Never could get it to work using xibase as the SMTP. I switched the SMTP to my regular and it worked fine. Until the server change. Now I get the username/password mismatch. But the password works fine using webmail.

 

[Gonz]

You could always put down the mac & get a real pc

 

[Squiggy]

Prolly my next. I hate apple and since they did away with Mac OS theres no excuse to pay their prices. OSX is just a purtified Linux.

On the original topic....I too got emails about private messages about four hours after I originally received the message.
