Folks,
I am using Road Runner for cable interent access. The outgoing mail server is an SMTP server is called "smtp-server.satx.rr.com".
I have the M1XEP connected to the main unit and I am able to connect to it with no issues. I have just started to dable with the e-mail notifications and I find that I am unable to send e-mails.
By looking at my mail account settings from within Outlook Express, I see that I do indeed use Port 25 (same as the Elk default). Additionally my connection with the M1XEP is via an IP address assigned using DHCP.
When usomg the DHCP settings, the DNS loop up address boxes are grayed out. Is my problem that without a DNS lookup, I am unable to resolve " smtp-server.satx.rr.com" into an IP address? Other ideas? Does anyone elses Elk e-mail work?
