I don't have the option to change our isp, as it's my parents connection, and would involve changing the telephone back to BT etc (although that would be my first choice, as we're in Southampton and have had continuous problems for the last year or two!).

What are my options with regard to other email providers? I have a few other incoming email accounts, but have to send through ntl's smtp server, which defeats the object. Are there any isp's I can send and receive through which bypass ntl entirely? I've got a hotmail account too, but that's hardly reliable! I don't mind paying for a decent reliable pop3 email service - is there anyone you can recommend???? Please?????!!!!

Thanks for your help.

Regards

Victoria
