Maybe try Firefox and Thunderbird as your browser and email client? |

Evidently something is |
| 50 |
wrong with how Mozilla is configured and maybe deleting any and all |
| 51 |
/home/dale/.mozilla |
| 52 |
folders is called for. Since you have already went through a new install |
| 53 |
and really did a good job of |
| 54 |
trouble-shooting, I would say your email client is the problem and/or |
| 55 |
ISP. I have bellsouth |
| 56 |
and have never had any of the problems you have encountered. |

Happy Hacking, |
