Temporary Dial-Up Required

lemarsh · 25-07-2006, 01:21

A friend of mine (honest) has Broadband through NTL, but is going on holiday, where there is no broadband service. He wishes to pick up emails on his Laptop.

Can anyone advise if there is a straightforward dial-up connection that can be made, using existing passwords/user names etc.

As usual, all help appreciated.

is this to the NTL network?

If not, will it restrict use of receiving & sending emails based on NTL's servers?

Thanks for this by the way - Lee

I think it's a BT one, you can recieve from NTL, but you can't send email anywhere (or if you can, i don't know the default smtp server), so use http://webmail.ntlworld.com

I use my Samsung D500 to send and receive emails when I am on holiday.
