[drats_users] drats_users Digest, Vol 36, Issue 1

Hi all,  Yes, my ID at G-mail is w5twr109 at gmail.com.  It's in POP3 and SMTP.
 I'm not sure but I don't think I am hearing connect rejected.  I don't
think I get any response at all from the mail server.  Does this represent a
time-out, connect failure?  That's what it looks like to me.  That's why I
mentioned the Sign-in Latency issue which seems to be, or has been a
World-wide problem.  All Browsers used for Webmail service, IE, Safari,
Firefox and Chrome (maybe Opera) seem to have issues with the Google 2.0
Software.   Is this the problem?  Maybe I should try Embarqmail or Yahoo to
see if they connect readily with D-Rats SMTP Email program.      Thanks for
your thoughts, Ed, W5TWR
