Static IP DSL (Was: Re: Where is rlz.ne.mediaone.net?)



K-mail. And it too worked perfectly for the longest time. Then, slowly, and
one at a time certain popsites would jam up on E-mail retrieval, causing the
system to lock. I'd have to go into Top to kill the E-mail process manually
to free the system. Eventually all popsites did it. no E-mail systems
settings were changed. Hmmm.
