SMTP is not supported outside of the network usually which stops you sending mail, but POP3 is so you can receive mail

they suck why? because they wont let you sent email via their servers when you arent connected to them?

You're not running AVG by any chance?

I've seen some anti-virus scanners (particularly AVG with the way it works) cause problems with the way they try and proxy the connection between you and the ISP. Can you reproduce the problem with all e-mail scanning functionality disabled?

If you are not on a Virgin connection then you will have problems sending but not receiving.

Yes I've sorted that - use an SMTP relay agent and it works perfectly. If I use my mobile on WiFI then it works... someting to do with IP addresses ? perhaps

The SMTP relay agent and T-Mobile are not really a supported issue, but good to see that this thread has been of help to you.:)
