Hello, and thanks for the read... '''ISSUE:''' Every day I have to call the telecom ROGERS that took over for telecom SHAW, turn IMAP and Pop3 on 9 Email accounts (they lost 1). Sometimes the 1 to 2 hors chat w/ a human turned it back on will not last long. '''DETAILS:''' # I can receive outside Emails *because I can't send using Shaw/Rogers, checking for Email, just hangs at trying to login in to any of the 9/10 emails. # When I can get a support person to check, they tell me that IMAP and POP3 are turned off. # They will tell me they re-enabled it. But it doesn't enable for me. # It all works OK when using the online webmail Zimbra. However, I need to check 3 of the 9 email accounts every hour, others every 6 hours, and others once a day at boot. '''QUESTION:''' When using POP3, does the setting on my SMTP need a special setting on Thunderbird?. '''NOTE:''' I am complying with "Rogers With Shaw" passing the buck to the Email Client (Thunderbird) by asking here - "Could It Be The Email Client'! And my answer is 'No', because Thunderbird works perfectly with 54 other Email accounts. Thank for reading this, and for any input you may add, ~r P.S., I'd like to see a upgrade to this input form that allows us to Preview out Post And, when I started this Post, it alerady had a image from a previous Post
