Hi I've been trying to help Ed with his comcast connection Something I've noticed, On the settings if you put in the email address of u...@comcast.nt , Evo fills in the correct settings. BUt if you then click on "check for supported types" you get a Red error message saying it cant resolve imap.comcast.net So I did a DNS lookup

I wonder if that's the problem that evo's lookup is timing out before the server address is resolved. It would explain the errors messages -- Best wishes /73 Richard Bown Email : rich...@g8jvm.com HTTP : http://www.g8jvm.com ###################################################################### Ham Call: G8JVM .
