Re: [OT] e-mail
You don't mention which email provider you are using, but most ISPs
that
provide email will not allow sending email when not directly connected
to their network (known as mail relaying). Receiving email is not
affected. Some ISPs block it outright and others will allow it, only
after being authenticated by using a valid username / password combination.
This is to prevent spammers using your mailbox to spam everyone else.
