Weird email problem over wireless - Jeff, got yer ears on?
This started a couple of days ago and it's happening from several computers at several locations. Can't download email over wireless connections, get a server time out error (error message pasted in below). The mail server, SendMail on RedHat 8, is at my office. If I check mail from any of several comps at the office over the LAN, no problems. The wireless connections go through a few links, two ends of a backhaul, then the AP, then the CPE - all smartBridges equipment.
Other than email, all other activities zoom along at a satisfying pace. I don't know of any reason an AP would knock out POP3 stuff, has me puzzled right now. Not even sure it's related to the wireless side of things but it seems more than coincidental.
Suggestions?
Error message from Outlook Express - Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.
