Re: [Dixonary] OT: Gmail Failure?
Thanks to all who replied. I did the web login that Gmail seemed to
want. I am not sure what I changed, if anything, but Tbird now seems to be collecting messages as it should (I hope that statement doesn't jinx me). I did wonder about the IP address: who assigns it? If the entity assigning it changes it, would that matter? If so, shouldn't I have been notified? According to my notes the last time I updated Tbird was in April. But the reliability of my notes is unknown. Then there is the Adobe Flash Player which demands to be updated monthly. And who knows how that might affect anything else. Another thing is the AVG antivirus software. It has, at least lately, installed something that wants to update/install AVG Secure Search or an update request for it, without giving the user a choice. There is a way to kill the update request but maybe there is something wrong there. The upshot of all of this is that things seem to be back to normal, whatever that means.
