| Problem: | Some months ago I requested that all messages for me be re-directed to another web site. I would now like to have messages to me remain at Torfree.net, so I can read them there. What should I do? |

| Problem: | Using Windows 95 and MicroSoft Outlook. When I log in to down load email messages, previously downloaded messages are also downloaded. Evidently, something is not deleting the messages from the server once I have downloaded them. Please check. |

| Problem: | The problem is with ADSL service (cannot find anywhere to report the problem on tfnet.ca other than e-mail and no response seems forthcoming): My regular POP3 server, IMAP and H-o-t-m-a-i-l (the software rejected this message b/c of that word) accounts are accessible at high speed (sent a 7 MB attachment as a test of smtp.tfnet.ca in under a minute), www.tfnet.ca, www.torfree.net and for some bizarre reason www.library.utoronto.ca (but not http://www.utoronto.ca). www.google.ca, the most important site is inaccessible (as is the rest of the web). Once in a while another web page will load, but very slowly (and sometimes quickly). At first I thought it was the modem, but the fact that www.tfnet.ca loads and e-mail is fast suggests a different problem. Three different computers with three different OSes exhibit this behaviour (Mac OS 9, OS X and Windows 95) so it's not an OS-restricted thing. The ADSL modem is the one provided by tfnet: "Billion BIPAC-711CE ADSL Modem/Router" |

You can look through the drop down menu options in IE to find "Internet Options"... the first screen will allow you to reset your home page back to torfree.net Using the Mozilla Browser (if your computer is fairly powerful) will prevent many of the security concerns that of using MS internet products on the Windows platform. |

| Problem: | While connecting in TEXT mode I am disconnected after about 2 or 3 minutes. Connecting through TELNET via one of the BBS in Toronto works fine and I will remain on for the time allowed. Thanks for your help. A.Boisvert |
| Answer: | When the system is busy, or you have used up your daily time quota, you will be limited to 2 minute logins. Please also note that you must wait 2 minutes *between* logins at busy times, or you will be disconnected immediately. If you find this level of service to be insufficient, please consider upgrading your membership and (further) supporting TFN. This is the way we pay for more phone lines. |

| Problem: | WE CAN RECIEVE ANY MAIL BUT WE CAN'D SEND AT ALL ER R USING WIN 2K BOTH SERVER AND PROFFISSIONAL WITH MS OUTLOOK EXPRESS, Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Subject 'Re: ', Account: 'pyramids.gega.net', Server: 'smtp.gega.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10053, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F |
| Answer: | Web references for error 800CCC0F seem to indicate a mismatch between your client's SSL (secure connection) settings and the server's. Otherwise, when you can receive mail but not send it, always make sure that you are using the SMTP server directly associated with your internet connection. For example, if you are trying to use smtp.torfree.net, you have to be dialled in to one of our modems. |

| Problem: | When selecting newsgroups, for 7 out of 8 pre-selected groups, I get the message: "No state for [...name of newsgroup...] found, reading as new." And the news group opens with 0 messages. This situation (7 out of 8) has not happened before (as I had 3 out of 8 working). |

| Problem: | Hi, I have tried uploading using Zmodem,but as soon as you enter the filename in Lynx, you are bounced back to the previous page of modem options Then I tried X modem and Xmodem-1K sending options, and my file transfer fails with the error "got burst NAK, no sector ACK or something to that effect. Sometimes this happens at the head of the file, sometimes about 2/3 through but it is a consistent error Is this likely a configuration problem on my terminal? I really need to be able to upload this file (19K). Any suggestions? Thanks, Ion bj321 |
