[quote=“Fortigurn”]I just looked into Gmail’s help file, and discovered how to use their SMTP server, authenticating with my Gmail address and password.
They use port 587, and it works perfectly. You beauty! :bravo:[/quote]
Although this works I presume you would still like to get the Hinet SMTP server connection working as you will presumably send mail quicker ? ie: via gmail your PC needs to send eack packet to the server in the US rather than on-island…
I use the same type of setup where I POP from my own registered domain, but SMTP directly from hinet. I currently use ms33.hinet.net, I have also previously used ms17.hinet.net & msa.hinet.net
I think each relates to different mail servers located around the country (?). Possibly the one you used to connnect to times out from your new location… just try various combinations unti lyou find one that works… ie: ms17.hinet.net, ms21.hinet.net, ms33.hinet.net, etc.
