Help: Can't send mail or get newsgroups - Receive mail fine????

K

KJ Sargenti

I just installed Jaguar and an Asante' router with Road Runner. Entourage
is working just fine on my iMac (400 mhz PPC G3); however I can't send mail
or access the newsgroup server on my 550 MHz PowerBookG4. I've checked all
the settings which are identical. I've tried switching the two computers
router locations, wires, etc and nothing seems to fix it. Anybody else had
this problem? Any ideas for a fix?

TIA,

Click to expand...

If none of your settings in Entourage are working and you don't indicate
error messages coming from Office, I would suspect you may have a networking
problem.

You said "all the settings which are identical"... Are you referring to just
Entourage or are you including your network setup as well? If so, your IP
addresses of your two machines must be different by one number.

For example:

192.168.0.1 and
192.168.0.2

Subnet mask, router/gateway and DNS should be left as they are and the last
number after the third period of your address should be between 1 and 254.

Hope this helps! bill
