    Default Email problem

    This drives me barmy.

    My ISP is BT and I have two email accounts with them. I get all my emails from them sent through to my Windows Mail. However, for some reason, intermittently, they get stuck and won't come through. I have to close my Windows Mail and stop it trying to collect the mail, go into BT Yahoo and on occasion move them to a different box, such as junk and then back to the inbox, before they will eventually come through into my Windows Mail application.

    Does anyone else have this problem? I don't think it is specific to Windows Mail itself as it has happened when I have used other programmes to collect the mail from that email address.

    I think perhaps I will have to switch to googlemail and do it that way instead. I don't know of any others that I can direct straight to my windows mail.

    I have bt accounts, and their email yesterday was just generally a bit screwy. So it may not be you - may be them!!
