I had mixed success with wifi, but quite OK.
I could never send mail through SMTP (port 25) to my email provider (tinet.org) though. I doubte whether that was some bug or an administrative decision (or just some misconfiguration on my side, I didn't take much time to debug my firewall, etc., although it works elsewhere).
SMTP is blocked on the university's network. It's their policy, not ours. This is a common practice to avoid people sending spam from the university's internet connection. One way to bypass it is to tunnel your SMTP connection through an SSH connection... Kind regards, Gerry.
