[Sheflug] Mail

["Ian W. Wright" <xxxxx [at] xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm a bit confused.... (nothing new there then!!)
Up to now I haven't bothered to set up mail on a Linux box as it has been
easier to just carry on getting through the windoze one, however, since I
put Debian on a reasonable computer I thought I should give it a try. But I
can't get it to work....
I have Mozilla and Konqueror set up so I can get to the web via my network
gateway on the windoze box and they work fine but both Mozilla mail and
Kmail consistently tell me they can't find my mail account. I can't see
anywhere in either programme's setup where I can tell them to use a proxy -
unless I should change the PORT 110 setting to the port number of my proxy.
What am I missing?

Best wishes,
Ian
