problems with email to hotmail.com

30 Apr 2002

      I'm a Charter user, and something has changed between charter and
hotmail so that I can no longer send email to hotmail.com accounts.  I
CAN send if I use Charter's web mail interface, but I much prefer to
stick with pine.

I suspect that the problem is that I'm behind a linksys router using
private IP's and NAT.  I've tried talking to Charter tech support, but
they are worthless -- they just tell me that they only support Outlook
email.

I've tried configuring Pine so the it uses the Charter smtp server
directly, but that doesn't seem to help, either.  Right now, I'm using
my local machine, and routing through Charter.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Bill
