I tried it on a fluke and it worked, so I don't want to change anything but if it stops working I'll try out you options. Thanks again!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Internet-Bellnexxia-SMTP-and-OSX-not-working-well-together-27984819 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 12:42:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Internet-Bellnexxia-SMTP-and-OSX-not-working-well-together-27984173
If you've tried that, and the IP's you use still don't work, try this for your out-bound SMTP server (again with the above settings):

67.69.240.54

This is an intermediate Bell mail handler (I don't think it's intended that it functions as a primary SMTP server) but it does work - but note that if the recipient e-mail address is @bell.what-ever or @sympatico.ca then I think it drops those e-mails without delivering them.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Internet-Bellnexxia-SMTP-and-OSX-not-working-well-together-27984173 Wed, 06 Feb 2013 09:36:30 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Internet-Bellnexxia-SMTP-and-OSX-not-working-well-together-27963238 I can receive emails no problem, but sending them doens't work no matter what server address I use!
I've tried smtp.bellnexxia.net, 67.69.240.69 (works while I'm hard-wired at the office), 67.69.240.61, and a slew of others!
This is so very annoying, no one at Bell seems to know anything about OSX either which is even more frustrating... I mean, c'mon!]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Internet-Bellnexxia-SMTP-and-OSX-not-working-well-together-27963238 Wed, 30 Jan 2013 20:21:57 EDT
