My transcript tells a different story: (but at least I was able to connect to pop server) bsd > telnet pop.newsguy.com 110 Trying 209.155.56.72... Connected to pop.newsguy.com.

Possibly something to do with my ISP DNS machine?. But seemsno way to connect to smtp server. Seem there would be tools to manage this... I seem to recall something about fetchmail .... but not recognizing it in man page.
