I run Evolution on Redhat 8.0 with Adelphia connection and have no
problem sensing or receiving email. Occasionally their mail server goes
down and I'll get a warning message that it could not connect to server.
Dosen't happen often though. Both incoming and outgoing are set to
mail.adelphia.net (Outgoing is NOT smtp.adelphia.net) If not on their
network I believe you must prepend adelphia.net with .buf (ie
mail.buf.adelphia.net)
Hope this helps.
