Socket Error # 11004

Socket Error # 11004 stands for "Valid name, no data record of requested type".
You get this error message if your are not connected to the internet or a firewall blocks your outgoing connection.

hmm but it works with 1 email account of 2 and the other account can i check with Eudora =/

Hm - this is very strange... what does your connection string look like? (please wipe out the password before posting it here)....

[karma]

u31112965@m1.3111.telia.com
username@pop

[André Martin]

The syntax you use is absolutely correct (Username[:Password]@POP3Server[:Port]) but there doesn't exist a public DNS Record for your POP3 Server (m1.3111.telia.com). If it works with Eudora then it should also work with the plugin. Can you check if the entered POP3Server in Eudora is identical to the one you entered in the plugin (m1.3111.telia.com)?!?

Hello!
• I don't know if this could help, but I remember that Eudora doesn't support two @ in that line. The case is when the user's login is his(her) full email address. The trick is to replace the first @ with % like:
dupont%host.fr@pop.host.fr
¤ It's the same with Pegasus...
• Please excuse me if the problem is else...
Kind regards,
Clo

No problem
Usually you get a "Host not found!" error message which is much more "detailed"...
