Hi David an all

Another option might be to avoid using NTL email and get a separate email address which is not dependent on your ISP. I have found this very useful as over the past few years I've been using university provision for my internet connection, and my parents' broadband connection at home. this has meant that had i relied on the various iSPs for email my address would have been constantly changing, which is no good if you're on a lot of lists. Anyway, the dedicated email provider I use is called usermail.com. They have an extremely clean web interface which is very quick to load and very accessible. I have been with them for nearly three years and have only had:
* Two spam emails (both reported and never heard from again)
* As far as I know, only one email wrongly blocked
* Five ours of downtime (last Tuesday as it happens, but as I say this is the only time it has occurred).

It costs $19.95 per year, which I think is well worth it, and there is a thirty-day trial.

James

thanks everyone for your help on this one.  I have received a good deal of
spam, but at least the messages I want are also coming through.

David, believe me. Nod32 will pick up a virus as soon as it smells one. I
had a few of them about a month ago and it copped every one before it hit
the in box and warned me it had detected a threat and which virus it was.
If someone tries to send you a virus, it won't stand a chance ! !

Cheers,
Sandra.
