[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 320448, member: 6969"] no I REFUSE to talk to a call centre. BT list a procedure to add accounts to be "let through" their outgoing server, but their procedure fails as when I log on, my web mail page appears different to the example they list, and the "account options" button is not there on my screen : headbang Anyway a bit of googling found a solution. Create a Gmail.com emal address (that I don't intend to use) then you can use the Gmail.com server. Here's the instructions [URL="http://www.geekzone.co.nz/tonyhughes/599"]http://www.geekzone.co.nz/tonyhughes/599[/URL] I've set up and tested 2 of my accounts and it works. Only another 6 to set up (perhaps I don't need so many email addresses?) Why does all this have to be so difficult? How do others manage? I can see now why some people, whenever they change ISP they change their email address to one supplied by the new ISP because otherwise it's all too difficult. So now I'm using a gmail outgoing server, and various incoming servers from previous isp's [/QUOTE]
