in a word, yes.

More Info...

Here's how I'd do it...

Home PC:
Outlook configured for IMAP to your ntl mail, using ntl's SMTP server

Laptop @ Home:
as above

Laptop @ Work:
As above, but using your work's SMTP server.


Webmail is a web interface to IMAP anyway, so will be in sync with Outlook

That's interesting using IMAP but I wonder how many people ever use it rather than POP3 ? I saw this link on the web about what's needed to setup Outlook with IMAP but presumably other VM/NTL server details would be needed - what would they be ?

I must admit that my confidence was somwhat premature. I do not seem able to connect to the NTL servers via IMAP.
