That reminds me (heh), It seems like the stuff I stuck in for the POP fields
is now NOT working... and of cource, warp puked, I had to reinstall it...

Me too. 5 days and 3 complete re-installs later, I still can't send mail
with UltiMail Lite. Receive no worries. It seems to "queue" ok and
sometimes, only sometimes, upon logon, it tried to send to the POP server
but I get sendmail errors, TCPIP failure or something.

I must say it is reassuring to know I'm not the only poor sod.

Welcome to the information loway.

Has anyone else noticed what a pig UltiMail is in the resource department?

after having it work for a few [glorious] moments several times plus
having to not only reinstall DOS 6.2 and Windows 3.1 and OS/2 Warp/NOT
AND having to reformat my hard disk at least 4 times (all of this over 1  
week), I deleted OS/2 Warp/NOT from my hard disk.
 
I have now gone back to good old reliable Windows and I am looking for
somebody to buy this CD version of OS/2 Warp/NOT. I'm sure it would help 
if I had a 486 with 16 of RAM, but I dont....

sendmail tries to do a reverse name lookup on startup and if that
fails it assumes that tcp/ip isn't running.

The solution is to add your IP address and name to the
\tcpip\etc\hosts file.

Mine has (among other entries):
192.0.2.1 rupa

(oh, and a subtle reminder that there is a "good" REXX login script in
ftp.netcom.com:/pub/rupa/tia (check the ReadMe).  It has a decent
dialer (get through netcom's busy signals and *** Host not available
*** crap) and is how the slipup.cmd file SHOULD be. (IMO)

Some how I managed to get this news article through to my
system with out being subscribed. Oh well. Since I've got
your attention, can you give me your opinion on OS"/Warp,
as I am completely pissed off with Windows crashing all
the time and wondered if Warp is any better?

Thanks in advance,

Ric
