Thanks pointed me in the right direction. Once I had installed telnet on my server I found I could only log in from my windows box by using the IP number.
I have noticed before that when I ping from the windows box it shows the windows IP number rather than the server IP number. Put it down to a samba issue. If I enter IP numbers instead of server name in Eudora away it goes.

Can't get into it from eudora on my windows box. test it using telnet: telnet host 143 (when you see the IMAP banner:) A001 LOGIN username password A002 LOGOUT where username/password..are..well you know :) if that works then you can reach it from that machine. Be sure you have eudora configured for IMAP access if your using IMAP(its been 4-5 years since i've seen eudora and i think back then it was POP3-only). Also it doesn't hurt to try another email client, I always reccomend this to people having trouble, if another client works then the problem can be isolated to that software(or it's configuration) on the client computer rather then anything on the server. There are several free mail software programs available. > Are there any Samba issues ( or any similar things I have missed) samba > is working between the two hosts for printing & home directories only. if your asking if samba could be causing problems with cyrus the answer would be no, I can't imagine how samba could in any way interfere with cyrus. if your question is something else I'm not sure what your asking. good luck nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
