My original post on this thread was just to try and help a newcomer who could not get Outlook to work with his Virgin connection!
I do feel that in the recent past Virgin pretty well lost interest in their Internet customers and provided very poor technical support.
Indeed, after the merger I could not use Virgin email for about two months while some technical problems were being resolved and then I could not use Outlook (not matter critical as I also have a slower MSN premium connection on Sky)
Now that there is more interest in TV-online Virgin may pay more attatention to their broadband customers cf this note use page wrap before clicking

Kind Regards
Actually, I terminated my Virgin broadband over two years ago. However, I never had an NTL email account. I had a Cable and Wireless one, and it was one that NTL (for reasons best known to themselves) terminated when they bought the cable business from C&W.

I had that account running via Outlook (actually 98) with no problem. However, I will say that I never asked for support.

The support page I was referring to actually covers Outlook 2000, and not Outlook Express: http://www.virginmedia.com/help/emai...ther-o2000.php
