Thread: I need a little help please ---

Here's the situation: My father has a small home office with a basic network. Two computers through a router through a DSL modem to the internet. One computer is a Macintosh running OS 10.3.9 and another is a Dell using Windows XP Professional. The service provider is BellSouth which I think is now under AT&T. About 6 months ago his Dell computer started having problems receiving email (it won't) and it will only send basic emails (no attachments or very small ones) without timing out and giving various warnings. The Macintosh has no problem sending or receiving email. Both computers have no problems sharing files and printing to network printers. Both computers use Mozilla Thunderbird . The Dell computer just started having problems without me making any changes in preferences/options/setup. The Dell computer doesn't have any problems using Gmail but he doesn't like using it and likes his original Mozilla setup.

Anyway, thanks in advance for any help
