Not much of a test Lisi. I am subscribed to this list using a wdtv.com address. So my mail only goes thru a gmail server if its going to a person who is subscribed to this list using a gmail address. Gmail locked me out, intermittently, then permanently, 7 or 8 months back, but the shentel alias kept on working till yesterday afternoon. Shentel farmed their email services out to gmail most of a year ago, so when I post to a shentel server, its actually going out thru gmail. This is single access attempt: mailfilter: 0.8.3 querying ghesk...@shentel.net@pop.gmail.com on Thu Aug 20 01:07:02 2015. mailfilter: Error: Error occured while sending password to server. mailfilter: Error: Server login failure. mailfilter: Error: Skipping account ghesk...@shentel.net@pop.gmail.com due to earlier errors. fetchmail: Authorization failure on ghesk...@shentel.net@gmail-pop.l.google.com fetchmail: For help, see http://www.fetchmail.info/fetchmail-FAQ.html#R15 fetchmail: Query status=3 (AUTHFAIL) So both mailfilter and fetchmail are being denied with an AUTHFAIL. I'll attempt to scratch this itch during business hours tomorrow. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
