Hi Andy, 145 for Imap? That's unusual.

I can send messages, but not receive any. So far, I've left my Mac set up to receive mail via pop3, and that's still working ok, but this Windows machine isn't receiving via it's imap account. I've changed the port from 110 to 145 as instructed on the Plusnet website, and changed the server name to the imap server name. When I look at web mail, my inbox has loads of mail in it, because although mail has downloaded to the Mac, it hasn't so far downloaded to the Windows machine, and won't leave my web mail inbox until that happens, this is why I want to change to imap, so the mail doeswn't stay stuck in my web mail in box. Any thoughts? - Andy
