have a look in the servers tab of your mail account , you should have pop.ntlworld.com and then smtp.ntlworld.com

Re: help with setting email up
outgoing server should be smtp.ntlworld.com
incoming is pop.ntlworld.com
after that verify your account name and password and make sure you are not dialing a connection.

Re: help with setting email up
One last thing some miss (or rather don't miss but should do) is the "Log on using secure authentication" box as this should NOT be checked when setting up NTL mail account.
The secure log on is only required for setting up accounts like hotmail in outlook/outlook express.
N.B. Also remember that passwords are case sensitive so it is easy to miss the caps lock key being on when typing or re-typing the password as all you see is ***********.
