Hi David,



I tried your suggestion and used the live CD.  Email worked perfectly.  I 
apologize for the email I posted where I forgot who posted.  I just came in 
from a fall I took in the back yard.  Almost knocked myself out, I hit my head 
so hard.  After I send this, I may be off line for a few minutes, I don't feel 
well.  I will try again later.



After successfully sending and receiving email from the live CD, I booted 
again and tried connecting with Kmail, first.  I got this error message:
----------------------------------------------
Error-Kmail



Unknown host
pop.att.yahoo.com
----------------------------------------------
I checked configuration and everything was as it should be.  Next I tried to 
connect using the browser.  The error message reads  Unknown Host and doesn't 
work..



When I configured Kmail using the Live CD, I used the exact same settings as 
are on the normal application.  I want to remind you too, that I got this same 
error, prior to re-installing Jaunty to try to fix the problem.  I know it 
probably is not a virus, everyone is certain, but so that I can explain and 
not confuse you which machine and stuff, I am going to talk like it has a 
virus.



The infected machine had the Unknown Host for browser and unknown host for 
kmail.  Live CD did not.  Both Kmail and Konqueror worked normally.  The 
infected computer was formatted and reinstalled, and still had Unknown host 
for both Kmail and Konqueror.  All of this has just now been tested with a 
direct connection to the ISP via the DSL modem.  Thanks!  I am encouraged that 
the Live CD worked.  Apparently it is not a hardware problem.  Thanks friend.
