Please note: At home, I've left my mail client polling my mailbox so I'm only
getting some mail here at work. I poll the same mailbox, so it's whichclient
gets it first. Hence, not all mail will be read until tonight.

Now if I could telnet to my box, I could stop that by blocking the outgoing
POP requests via my firewall.... <Grin>

What I did with my original Nokia M10 was change the interfaces on which it
accepted incoming configuration requests. I changed the web interface to port
8080 and the telnet interface to 2323. This worked fine. Hence, that's what
I planned to do with the new Nokia. If I could find out how... <grin>

I'm sure you can see how to do this in the original M10.

Hmmmmm, perhaps the installer was mistaken! Let's hope so.
