I open the Nightmist client. I type my acc. name and acc. pw and the thing just says connecting... but I never get on.
I've tried disabling my email scanner but that doesn't work...

Did you uncheck use alternate dns/alternate port?
No checks on them, no email scanner, try that.

alternate port is running again atm, if neither port works, it'll be a firewall you've got

I dream about how it's going to end,
Approaching me quickly.
Leaving a life of fear,
I only want my mind to be clear.

the only way nightmist wouldn't work if you get a connection via telnet is if you are connecting to something else other than the nightmist server, we know that port 110 goes via norton antivirus (if you have incoming email scanning enabled), but afaik, nothing monitors 20000. just do a ping to nm.nightmist-online.co,uk and paste the ip you get back, should be either 81.99.152.165 or 80.4.180.235

that's a correct ip, only thing that springs to mind now is a firewall of somesorts blocking nightmist's connection to the net

even if firewalls are disabled, they are still 'active' in a sense.
