Virgin email

[link to this post]

Hi, I'm thinking of moving to TT from Virgin.net (ADSL not cable). Has anyone else made this move & know if I will still be able to access the Virgin SMTP & POP3 severs from my TT account.

I appreciate that I'll need to use my Virgin dial-up account once a month to keep my email addresses active.

Thanks

Wont be able to send as most ISP's restrict visibility in terms of sending email to their own network customers. To send via another ISP you usually just point the account at your new providers SMTP server.

On POP3 you need to check whether they have any requirements in terms of you connecting via dial-up now and then to keep the account alive.
