Re: [PHP] Re: News reader

yes on port 119.
i do not want to use my professional email address (or SMTP settings) to
send message on newsgroups.

for MS, Borland, eclipse and other newsgroups servers, it works perfectly
without setting a SMTP server.
i do not use gmail to send message via thunderbird... i use gmail only for
mailing list as thunderbird does not work :-(

Try your ISP mail account directly. Maybe gmail is blocking you.

Can you access and other newsgroups?

You'd be better off working with the Thunderbird forum for this problem.
It's not a php problem.

Hi,
i tried to configure Thunderbird to read and post news on PHP.net
forums.
I'm able to read messages but not to post some.

Does anyone already succeed in it ?
Do to security reasons at work, personal email usage is strictly
forbidden
now so i'm not able to use gmail, yahoo or hotmail anymore.

thanks a lot


Create a new account
Select newsgroup
enter news.php.net

I used Thunderbird for this message.
