While writing an email I get the message

rxvt: can't open DISPLAY 10.0.50.107:0

(The above appeared on this screen without me typing it).

I can open an rxvt from my local computer on another virtual terminal

export DISPLAY 10.0.50.107:0
rxvt &
Failed to open input method.

The rxvt appears in X anyway.

At the library, online with dbclient, and lynx also works, but when I
follow the same procedure as at home with a dialup connection, rxvt cannot
find my display, nor can xclock.

Maybe the library router is causing some problem? Firewall?

The -ac method worked at home between two computers via crossover cable.
Does not work at the library either. Same problem.
Tried Xvesa and SVGA X server.
