Will Verizonl no longer let read pop mail or send smtp mail from out of the USA?
2) Is it true that Verizon will no longer let people read pop mail or send smtp mail from out of the USA? I was told that by a guy who usually knows,and the first few times I tried, I coudlnt' do either (except using webmail.) But something happened -- maybe I fiddled with some eudora program files -- and now I can send and receive? |

When you're using email you should be using encrypted ports in any case. Not plaintext ports where the password travels in the open. Your Verizon information sheet (has the particulars of the IP addresses you're supposed to connect to), should be offering encrypted ports. One reason for not accepting connections outside of your "geographic norm", is on the assumption the account has been hacked. If I make a purchase of software from a German company, who is using a European payment processor, my credit card company blocks the transaction. It's normal for "surveillance" software at large companies, to use geographical information about your habits. Paul |

I remember trying to watch some video at the BBC web site but they rejected my access. IP addresses are allocated geographically: you get yours from someone's IP pool. There are sites that can somewhat locate you via geolocation. You enter your IP address and they lookup the region where that IP address is allocated (from which pool it is allocated). Some sites restrict access via geolocation. If outside the areas they grant access, you don't get in. As mentioned in another of my reply's, routing is not dynamic. Could be a hop (host) in the route between wherever you are to Verizon's server is unresponsive, down, or too busy and refuses more connections. Do a traceroute between you and the server to make sure you have a live route between you and them. |
