Go into OE > Tools > Accounts > Properties > Servers & see if any changes have been made to you POP3 & SMTP settings POP3 should be: pop3.xtra.co.nz SMTP should be: smtp.xtra.co.nz As for hotmail I don't know what the settings are for that |

The only related thing it might be is Quik Bigmail (bigmail.quik.com) - though what the hijack is I don't know. Definitely do a Spybot scan and see if there are any dodgy registry changes. |

| 145648 | 2003-05-19 00:56:00 | well my ISP is quik internet and my pop is pop3.quik.co.nz and stmp.quik.co.nz its been like that for a year...havent changed it or anything why is it happening all of a sudden? |

| 145649 | 2003-05-19 00:58:00 | Les3 pop3.xtra.co.nz and smtp.xtra.co.nz are the same IP so it doesn't matter if one or the other is setup as smtp as it's the port it uses that counts not the name in this case as both resolve to the same IP. |

| 145650 | 2003-05-19 01:03:00 | Sounds like a domain has been set on your ISP connection. Check those settings to see if qbigmail is there. If so, remove it. | Kame (312) | ||
