>> Advanced Login
correct.
>> pop.csi.com as server name
correct.
>> my e-mail address as Mail2Web has always known it (what Mike specified)
must be the 'friendly name' you set up years ago, not the numeric one, and include the
@compuserve.com part, i.e.
dodis@compuserve.com
>> POP3 for protocol
correct.
>> it did NOT want the new CompuServe password I set up a few days ago
thats the one it needs if all other points are correct. check spelling, capitals or not, etc.
>> Then, I tried the special password I'd originally set up with Mail2Web
M2W does not use passwords at all. it just asks you for passwords that belong to the
mail account you use. in this case, the above CSI password.
>> It seemed to accept that
dont get angry: could it be you are mixing passwords up?
>> asking me to copy a new "code word"
thats why i asked about the mixup. this request only comes if email and password are OK.
and here might be a hiccup: if you use any of the FIREFOX popup or script blockers (such
as NoScript), you might not SEE the code it is asking for. check that, and allow FIREFOX
to permit
any scripts for that page. or, just for this testing, use IntExpl.
>> I gave up
dont. we will have you going within minutes.
>> Have you--either Mike or Heinz--actually got Mail2Web to read mail on the new system?
>> Or do you know anyone who has?
me, yes for sure, some 15 accounts so far. my own and friends. all work.
