FWIW I'll see if any SU on VM forum is going to use mine, if not I'll PM you in a week with it.

I can't actually use it as BenMcr forget's that originally NTLWORLD domain users could have (and guess what) 15 email ID's and the max is now 10 !!! So unfortunately there's no way for me to move a webspace id to virginmedia domain without losing 6 email ID's!

....and before Ben predictably asks me to escalate to VM Support to do it for me then: do I really look/sound/write that stupid? (OK no need to answer that! ).

That said I predicted VM would terminate Webspace back in 2009, 2 yrs after their re-branding but even LG in 2013 gave them another two years grace.
Despite their re-assurances then VM email ID's will not be continued when the current OSA contract runs out as that is also not in LG's mission roadmap, So I give that another 2-5 yrs before that goes the same way!
OK as my previous prediction was at least 2yrs out then say 3-6yrs.
