Email Oddities
Posted: 18 Jun 2009, 19:52
Stretching the virtual spanner a bit I know, but I'm getting odd behaviour from the email system, and I'm wondering if the dialler has been hijacked but don't know how to easily check. Well it says it is the service provider dialler, but can I be sure?
Using Outlook Express the host email service is not transmitting emails and has not for 24 hours, but will receive. Now I know that when using my work laptop through a PAYG dialler I can get emails in but not out, as it is not going through the company server.
Looking at Outlook Express settings I can see that the Active Directory is listed as
Server Name: NULL / Account: NULL LDAP 3268 Log On Required (Ticked)
Then there are three other Directories listed for Bigfoot, VeriSign Internet Directory Service and WhoWhere Internet Directory Service - all using LDAP 389 and not requiring Log On.
Now I don't know if they were there before or are set up with Win XP.
Am I being paranoid, or is DaveB really out to get me - or at least transfer the bar bill for Saturday to my internet account??

I've just had a look in OE and I have those three accounts too so I guess they're default ;-) No idea how PAYG diallers work amigo.. I don't possess a laptop
