My mum is - having just been moved to GMail, the transition has not been as smooth as we would have liked.

Seems fine on the GMail-based platform, as long as you've set your e-mail client up correctly, e.g. as per this thread.

Works fine in daytime but at peak hours the link on sky.com seems to time out alot!
If i relied on their email maybe it would be a problem but i dont :P

In the sense that they appear to have dropped IMAP support, yes. I enquired about it and they sent me instructions, 'use imap.tools.sky.com' they said, but that has no DNS entry.

Had problems before and after the changeover - couldn't log in, error messages, etc., but this morning it seems to be working fine.

It surprises me that there is nobody posting problems with email on these boards. A different forum is littered with them.

As sky is very much a plug and play ISP, with preconfigured routers and install CD's, I am surprised they have completely changed POP and SMTP details, and then changed everyone over on the same day!

The imap thing would bug me, if I used my @sky.com account.
