<p>Just a quick update... my suspicions were correct in that my inability to send mail was a direct result of issues at AOL / Verizon. At this point things appear to be OK with an occasional hiccup.</p><p> </p><p>Thanks</p><p> </p><p>Tom G, Sr. </p>

<p>Good Afternoon:</p><p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">This AM when attempting to reply to a business e-mail I noticed that I couldn't send.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">No problem receiving mail. No changes to any of the setting...</span></p><p><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Was on the phone with AOL tech support, they were helpful but of no assistance.</span></p><p>I can't prove it but I firmly believe that the difficulty lies in the Verizon/AOL SMTP server. </p><p>I use my Pegasus for business communications and have for years. I'm dead in the water... any constructive thoughts are gratefully accepted.</p><p>Thank you</p><p>Tom G, Sr. </p><p> </p>

<p>In case this is relevant... </p><p>The following comment was recently posted in a discussion about an AOL login problem:</p><blockquote><p>Apparently AOL has recently changed their logon to require the full name, e.g., "username@verizon.net"; not just "username"</p></blockquote><p>You might want to search out Verizon's most current connection requirements to check for any other changes (ports,SSL/TLS settings).</p><p>Also, an internet session log may identify the point of failure.  Don't post a entire log though because it will contain credentials, possibly encrypted so as to be unrecognizable if you don't know what to look for, but it's easily decrypted. </p>

<p>The problems started February 14/15.  I initially opened a ticket with the <font color="#cc0000"><i><b>LOUSY</b></i></font> AOL Support on 2/16. </p><p>Oath is a subsidiary of Verizon but separate.  Oath is in the process of merging the email systems of AOL, Yahoo and Verizon.  In doing so they have fouled up the Verizon email services.</p><p>When I initially opened the ticket with AOL this is what I experienced and it was with AOL POP3... </p><p>When  <b>pop.verizon.ne</b>t  [ <i>which is the published address to use</i> ] is used and it resolves to;  <b>global-jpop-aol.mail.gm0.yahoodns.net</b>   POP does not work correctly.</p><p>When  <b>pop.verizon.ne</b>t  resolves to;   <b>pop-verizonmail.egslb.aol.com   </b>POP works as expected.

Actually, same problem here just popped up a few days ago. Receiving is fine, just can't send. I'm using my own domain. Interestingly I also use eudora for some other addresses and have no problem whatsoever with that. Same settings as peg.
