After foolishly straying from Gnus for a while I am trying to return,
and I find myself unable to send any mail:
--- schnipp ---
Debugger entered--Lisp error: (file-error "make client process failed"
"software caused connection abort" :name "SMTP" :buffer #<buffer *trace
of SMTP session to smtp.rcn.com*> :host "smtp.rcn.com" :service 25)

"smtp.rcn.com" 25)

--- schnapp ---
I similarly am unable to telnet to that server:
--- schnipp ---
C:\src\emacs>telnet smtp.rcn.com 25
Connecting To smtp.rcn.com...Could not open connection to the host, on
port 25: Connect failed
--- schnapp ---
And when I try that, ethereal shows *no* packet traffic at all.
However, I can send from Thunderbird without problems. The ethereal
trace is enclosed. Any help would be massively appreciated!
Thanks,

Problem solved. It was my new virus protection software "helpfully"
trying to prevent any mass-mailing worms from hijacking my machine :oS
Sorry for the noise,
