Guest Dick Ashley Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 A blind friend of mine has a new computer with Win XP. He continues to use JUNO for e-mail. A few days ago JUNO reported the availability of new dialup numbers. I helped him choose the several local numbers (including the one he had been using) and correct dialing directions. We then clicked "Get New Mail". The computer connected to JUNO and appeared to download messages -- but very very slowly. After about 10 minutes the screen reached 100%. I closed that screen and was presented with another that reported -- Messages: 0 messages sent, 0 messages received Status: Mail transmission has been cancelled My friend and I are mystified and frustrated. Does anyone know enough to help us? (I use Comcast as ISP and, not surprisingly, the Comcast newsgroup server doesn't include a group for JUNO.) Dick Ashley

A group such as this which is for discussing Windows XP operating system issues isn't the proper place. Is there a customer support number for Juno? That would be a good place to start.

If you are using a high-speed connection, you can quite possibly connect to the Juno servers via your connection. HTH -pk
