Chat and Mail problems Q&A

Sorry to get back to this so late - life got a little busy

Seems that everyone coming in from outside does not get the error I see above, which is fine. The reason I cannot hard-code a HOSTS record is because I host multiple Emulators on the same dyndns (maybe I shouldn't do that

) so if I force tesseq.servegame.com to 192.168.1.32. then any attempt to hit my EQ2Emu will send my client to the wrong LAN machine, right?

Anyway, if it's just me that cannot use mail/chat, I'm fine with that for now. I did get it to work at one point, because two toons were able to login and send mail to one another. Not sure if that was just a fluke, or if for a version or two, something functioned differently

likely the former.

Thanks for the great explain. Hopefully it ends up in a wiki somewhere.

KLS added a rule to turn off the IP authentication. Set Chat:EnableMailKeyIPVerification to false.

Oh right on! Thanks!

Btw, I tried to update to the latest SVN and had no luck logging in - I'll go post a help thread on that as to not derail here... but I am greatful for the new rule!

Thanks again
