smtp.wbs.co.za - anybody else having issues?

[DaveBuchanan1337]

Hey again -

My email client is Ximian Evolution on Fedora 3 Linux. When I try to send emails to certain addresses (mweb especially), the send/recieve process stalls, times out after 10 minutes, and gives the error message - 'Cannot send message - insufficient disk space'.

this is NOT an error at my end - emails worked fine a week ago. There has been no modification of settings at my end.

(for those of you who think the insufficient disk space error is at my end, I doubt it - I think that it is a server-side error - I have 20gb free.)

Why don't you use SMTP server on your FC3 box, sendmail or whatever? Just block it against outside access.

ah. not a bad idea at all.

The way I see it, want to avoid WBS services as far as possible, they just have to provide the connection...

...they just have to provide the connection...

And exactly when do you reckon this will start happening?

Good question, next?

Can I make a suggestion. Check you MTU <hides for fear of vegetable pelting>
I had a similar problem. And eventually changed MTU and the problem was solved.
Just an Idea.
