No, I can't log in to webmail either - from within the NTL network *or* from a comppletely different network (2mb leased line at work).
As I said before, I can retrieve my POP3 mail no problem - it's just presently I can't send anything, which is rather annoying, to say the least.
When I get home later I'll try a manual connection to the SMTP server using its IP address, and see if that makes a difference, just in case it's a DNS issue.
I'm not impressed with NTL's mail service - I've had more problems with 'mail since I got my Broadband link than with anything else. It seems strange they have such problems with what should be a simple thing to setup and run (and I know, I design and build networks for a living!!)
Perhaps it's just a capacity problem (i.e. too many users and not enough servers?)
Who knows!
