If you are unable to send/receive emails using Inbox.com account via Email
Client, then please try to do Telnet test first to check if there is a
connection with any of the SMTP Port 25, 465 or 587 and POP3 Port 110.


1/ click on the Start button,
2/ then click on the Run,
3/ type in the box the word "telnet" and press enter - new window will be
opened,
4/ type in "open my.inbox.com 25" OR "open my.inbox.com 587" OR "open
my.inbox.com 465" and press enter and wait until you will be displayed by any
response,
5/ also check the connection with port 110 - type in "open my.inbox.com 110"
and press enter, wait until you will displayed by any response.

If any error message comes back (connection failed), it is necessary to
contact your internet service provider (ISP) to ask for help.

I did all of the telnet tests, and all worked EXCEPT for the first one "open
my.inbox.com 25" - it would never connect.

Is there a chance that VTISP actually has something switched off that won't
let me use Eudora? I'm currently stuck with 1 way email - in only! Kind of
annoying when people can write to you, but you can't answer!

Do you have the port blocked in a firewall somewhere?
