I expect that as time goes on Virgin will sort this out and refrain from foolish comments like not supporting Outlook because it is third party software

As I have said earlier Virgin do not support products that are not bundled with the operating systems regardless of how much you and others think they should be as this would entail extra training and relevant software to be installed on our systems which in turn would increase the cost of the service which by default makes it a non starter.
If you have to downloaded it, bought it, got it free with a magazine and want to install it on your system then Virgin will not support that product as it is a
"THIRD PARTY PRODUCT" no ifs or buts.
You want to access Virgin email easily then use webmail, if you want to use an unsupported email client then find out how to use it and do not sulk when you call in and we say sorry its unsupported but we can help you install Outlook Express or Windows Mail.
