I use Microsoft Entourage (the mac's version of Outlook) for all of my @daniweb.com mail. As you guys could imagine, I spend a lot of time sending and receiving mail with this account. A few days ago, I tried sending something to a forum member, and it just remained in my outbox. I tried something else, same thing. But I was receiving mail just fine. So later that night I finally had enough and called OOL tech support and they told me the news. To fix the problem, I set Entourage to use mail.optonline.net for my SMTP server for my @daniweb.com accounts, but I kept mail.daniweb.com as the POP3 server. It would have at least have been nice to get a heads up or notice that they were doing this. Or something - so that I didn't have to spend an entire day trying to figure out what was going wrong and then an entire night on hold with tech support.
