So apparent eHostPros (the server Steve has my beverlywu.com website on, that he describes as “crappy”) upgraded a whole bunch of stuff ~ 2 days ago…and trying to connect my email over a secure connection to their server something something something the certificates don’t match because it appears to be connecting to “ehostpros.com” when i ask it to connect to “beverlywu.com”
long story short,
my mac Mail program stopped retrieving email from beverlywu.com. ergh. couldn’t figure out why, until steve told me that they upgraded a bunch of stuff 2 days ago and/or the new browsers are getting really tough on security.
basically mail used to bitch about the security certificate, but now it just started rejecting it altogether.
long story even shorter,
i fixed it by somehow making it permanently accept the security certificate that it didn’t like, and presto! it retrieved a load of email to my inbox. i’d give more instructions but i can’t remember in which which menu i did this.
