Alright, so recently I've had a problem with TIAC. The modem and PPP and all the internet stuff works fine, but I can't download any E-mail. I think it's a popsite related issue, because I have more than one popsite, and it began happening one by one. Like I say, I can connect just fine, and both Nutscrape and KFM work great, but I have to go into Win-blows to get my E-mail. funny thing is, they're the same popsites. Is it possible that a popsite would not be able to download to Linux? David P.
