Email

[Brandon]

Here is how to get your email from school.

The first thing to do is to open a connection from your computer to your mail server.
telnet mail.domain.ext 110
You should receive a reply like:
Trying ???.???.???.???...
Connected to mail.domain.ext.
Escape character is '^]'.
+OK ready

Then log in:
USER userName
This should give you:
+OK Password required for userName.

Now give your password:
PASS passW0rd
Should yeild:
+OK userName has ? visible messages (? hidden) in ????? octets.
If it doesn't please see possible problems.

To see a list of your emails awaiting collection use the LIST command, this will also show you the id number of your messages (e.g. 1 or 2 etc.)
To view the contents of an email type RETR + the id number of the message (e.g RETR 1).
To delete a message use DELE + the id number of the message (e.g DELE 1).
To leave your mailbox and close the connection use QUIT

Yeah, how do you connect that way? I don't get it, I use GMail from my CellPhone too (very effective).

Ha, well, I can't do this. Our school is gay, and we all have our own accounts, and they are macs. So, im screwed. They check account activity daily.... UGH!

Seems pretty strict. My school just has any email providing servers blocked.

I thought there were other ways of going around it like, redirecting, but that was when I was stupid. You can easily go into the school's server though. I played PSP with my friend over the LAN. :yumyum:

Try a proxy or google translator english to english.

https://mail.google.com usually works, but not http://mail.google.com

https://mail.google.com usually works, but not http://mail.google.com

Those two links are exactly the same?

I just check my email when I get home from school, no need to pay Verizon even MORE money just to open up a few spam messages and several site questions I can't even answer on the spot. I could check from the school's computers but there are two problems:
1) Our computers = t3h suxx0rz. 64mb RAM, Windowes 95.
2) I would have to stay after school to use them, which is useless when I could be home using my own, far more superior computer.
