Stephanie, I entered a domain name in the TCP/IP search domains box in this
format:  sportscore.com
then hit the return key to move my ISP's search domain to the second line.
You were right that the domain name now shows up in my preferences. But when
I enter "www.sportscore.com" in a browser I get a 404 error in the Access
Log.  So the server knows that domain is there. But it won't download a
page.

Then I tried entering the IP name (I guess that's what it's called) assigned
to that IP address in the TCP/IP search domain box:  umpire.softballnews.com

It, too, shows up in the preferences, but when I try to get access with a
browser, I get the 404 error.  On my very first install of WebTEN I entered
this "umpire.softballnews.com" into the domain field and I was able to
download the home page. But on reboot, as I mentioned, I got a 404 error.

Stephanie, don't they have to sign up for webmail first?  I cant' get to the
signup page on Webmail.  I can't get to the Admin page on Webmail. I can't
get to anything on webmail.  Isn't it useless to try to access your webmail
if you haven't signed up for an account?

This is what I'm talking about. The server doesn't seem to respond to any
request for the default home page, or to a cgi interface.

I'm letting you know. Thank you for your help.
