I am unable to download messages or send messages with
gtkmail !
My parameters are largely the same as t.stoop who
submitted the previous support request. Is there an
update on this ?
Many Thanks

Send me the contents of your .gtkmailrc file. If everything
looks okay, I'll have you sniff the network traffic.

Okay, one more question. Do you have an SMTP server running
on your localhost? You need this for mail fetching to work
correctly.

The SMTP server I am using is Demon's I believe - I haven't
set one up on my localhost yet. I will look at doing that
sometime.
Many Thanks
