What's your need for dialing into NTL?

There are only two things I can think of...

1. FTP access to NTL's web servers
2. SMTP access to NTL's mail servers

You don't really need access to NTL's mail servers for sending as you can send emails via any ISP but still have your 'From' address as your NTL mail address if you want.

Other than that you can receive your NTL mail via POP3 from any ISP.

I've often used my old Freeserve account as a back up dial-up account.
