Anyone here use Eudora?
31. Mar 2011 at 11:25
 
I've been using it for years without a problem. I now have a Samsung notebook with a 3 Network dongle. I have loaded Eudora on it and can receive mail, but it always fails to send, with the following message:
"Error getting network address for "xxxx.xxxx.com". cause: requested entry not found (11004)."

I have cross-checked the setup for sending mail with my desktop and they are exactly the same. Seems to me as if the 3 Network can't find the outgoing SMTP server, but haven't a clue why.
I have scoured the web for solutions, but with no luck.  Sad

Anyone on here got some advice? Huh

Thast because your outgoing email server needs to be set to the Three one.

The Three SMTP server is usualy:

Server: smtp-mbb.three.co.uk
Encryption: None
Server port: 25

Cracked it: Change outgoing port to 587 and uncheck the authentification box. Thumbs Up! Thumbs Up!

Most networks with DHCP users will block outgoing port 25 (or redirect to their own SMTP servers) for those DHCP ranges to stop those IPs getting blacklisted, as its a PITA and fecking expensive for a company to unblacklist an IP.

The likes of Spamhaus demand a $300 'donation' for companies to remove an IP from their blacklists...  ...and they are just 1 blacklist provider Wink

Using alternative ports will allow you to access your own SMTP server, though invariably, if you are coming from a foreign network, it will require authentication.
