Morning all,
The new PC that I purchased last month has finally arrived (my first true gaming rig in nigh 20 years), and I'm having a grand 'ol time setting everything up on it from scratch. Anyway, was planning on using Thunderbird as my eMail client when I noticed that it had IRC chat functionality. Has anyone used this? Pros and Cons?
Hmm... now that I'm home I figured I would simply try and set it up to see what it looks like, and (of course) I can't get it to connect.
Have tried both "irc.svartalfheim.net" and "cleannorth.org". SSL is turned off. The client appears to be trying to use port 6697. Anything else that is obvious that I should look for?
Feeling like a total noob again. >_<
I've not connected through svartalfheim in ages, so I can't recall any tricks to it. Never even used cleannorth at all either.
I usually find connection going to irc.lunarnet.org with port 4444
And that would have been the problem. Well then. Excuse me while I go stand in the corner for a bit with the Dunce cap.
/me pats.
Nothing shouldn't work with svartalfheim. I still use that regularly with 6667. Or so I think. MIght have forgotten the settings.
