E mail

For some reason my E mail has stopped coming in. It says it cannot connect
to my pop server. Why now all of a sudden. Bin doing it for years???

 

Well, if you haven't changed anything, and your ISP didn't tell of an
upcoming change, then their system is down.

Of couse, since you are using OE, you have to assume that any of a
hundred viruses might have changed something. You're extremely
vulnerable.

 

For all other ISP's maybe but they are using NTL & there are people
reporting loss of email service for over a month now. If NTL's
handling of this problem is the same as that of the newsgroups then
the best suggestion is to get yourself another mail server if not
another ISP (news groups have been anything from flakey to non working
for well over 14 months now with no improvement in the pipeline, in
fact the official line appears to be that it's 'free' service so why
are you complaining)

To the original poster, put the timeout up on the account, it normally
works ok for me (as long as your patient).
