At least they were solved until the next morning, wben I tried to
sent out emails again and failed.
I called Apple back, reminded them of the service plan I bought the
day before and was referred to another tech adviser.
This time, I was told, in no uncertain terms, that I was in the
wrong place. So I went through the phone
chain again: Time-Warner to Apple, etc.
He pointed out that I was using Entourage to send and receive
email, and this was a Microsoft product.
He convinced me to call Microsoft, which I did.
Then, while in the hands of another polite lady and while fiddling
with the password and email designations, I realized that my name (Norman Mark)
did not agree with my nickname (normanmark) and the email (NMark, etc.) did not
agree with anything else. (Not even my
alternate email persona: Normal Mark.) So, while my Microsoft helper was on the
phone, I made everything agree, including the capital letters: for one email
area, I made sure that the name was NMark and not something else.
After saving my efforts and running a test (sending the email to
myself), everything worked perfectly.
Email went zipping back and forward around the Earth, easily and as
quickly as my wheezing computer could approve of everything. Until the next morning.
