Outlook Express.

I keep getting asked to enter my password again.
The request keeps recurring.
I cannot see any problems noted in the server status on the homepage.
Is anyone else having problems.

try changing your dns to a none NTL dns sometimes works

BTW using none NTL dns no problems

I've had the password problem for some time (i know the paswords are correct as they're all the same one.) I suspect that the status should be taken with a pinch of salt as it always comes back again no matter how often they say its fixed.

I think what NTL should do is invest in triple redundancy for the password authentication server and buy another couple of hamsters to power the machine and a that way they could do the work in shifts :D :D

I do not think this is related but could be a record even for NTL.
Received at 20:23 24/12/03 an e-mail that was sent out 18:53 08/10/03.
I know it came from America and reckon I could have walked there and back quicker.

Yep beats my record delay of just under a month to get an email from a friend in the states.

Did you check the headers to see when NTL's server actually received it ?

Recieved another seven this morning.
Silly me, this time I checked the headers and hands up to NTL they were not received until today.
I apologise to NTL over this one.
Does make me wonder where the hell they have been for over two months though.
