[Gllug] Mail crazyness

[Ashley Evans]

I've just had a problem with KMail not being able to send or receive my mail, 
to this end I decided to check out (with telnet) if the servers were indeed 
working. They were, and on the pop server I read 11 messages, 8 new and 3 
from months ago, which I've already read. After playing around with KMail and 
eventually swapping pop.server for the real IP address things started to work 
again, strange, yet acceptable. However, when I hit the check for mail button 
I only received the 3 old message. I again returned to good old telnet only 
to discover that only the 3 said messages were there (KMail doesn't delete on 
d/l).

Two question, has anybody had any similar KMail problems. And where the hell 
did my emails go!

Thanks,

Ash.
