Hi Jim & Jackie. A few questions. Are you using a serial modem connected to 
your Linux box, or an Ethernet connected adsl modem? Are you able to browse 
the Internet ok using Konqueror? Don't take any notice of the ISP telling you 
to use a Windows OS. They are living in the dark ages. If you cannot solve 
the problem with BT, change your ISP. Obviously if you are using webmail you 
need to know your username and password so as to be able to send mail. It may 
be worth setting up a different ISP account. I had no problems in England 
with Freeserve which is now Wanadoo. I'm now living in France, and have had 
no problems with e-mail or webbrowsing with Tiscali.fr or Wanadoo.fr. 
Admittadly these are able to use Kmail as an email client, sending via smtp, 
and receiving mail via pop3 mailservers. Also I've had no problems with 
Tiscali's webmail service either. As an alternative, as Mozilla Firefox 
(webbrowser) is used so much now, it may be worth installing Firefox, and see 
whether you can send Yahoo webmail through that, but personally I havn't had 
problems using Konqueror for sending webmail. Nigel.
