RE: [cobalt-users] Re: Qube3 + Outlook Express problems

["Manuel Noriega" <mnoriega@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've also had a similar problem. But I've noticed problem with SMTP not with
POP. When I do a POP3 session manually I have no problem and the Qube
responds quickly, but when I try a SMTP session manually I notice a 2 or 3
minute delay by the Qube.

Does anyone know how to solve this?

i am having this problem also which a few qube3. seems like all are like
that. It happen not only to outlook express but also ms outlook even to
outlook XP. User have to click the send and receive many times before they
can get connected and sometime sending mail also fail because it say server
found but did not respond or something like that and when i check the qube
it was running fine.
