Hi Ray,
Glad you are making progress.
I use imap to check and delete spam from the plusnet spam folder.
I try to avoid logging in to their web mail since they leaked all those e-mail
addresses a year or so ago. (still get lots of spam as a result).
Incidently, I have turned off their blatent spam blocking as some legitamate
e-mails were being removed.
