NTL Webmail automatic deletions

Osem · 15-12-2006, 12:13

Hello again all.

I have several ntl e.mail accounts and although I don't tend to use e.mail a lot, sometimes I want to retain certain messages and am finding that after 3 months they are being deleted automatically. Other than printing them (which I don't really want to do) is there any easy way of retaining these messages permanently?

Please bear in mind I am a great big simple old Hector

Cheers everyone !!!!!!

Set up outlook express or any other email software to use the account and then when you connect and retrieve your emails using the software tool you will have a copy on you harddrive.

Ah right - how do I set up Outlook Express? Are there any idiot proof instructions??

Cheers

See above, I've added a link to the NTL tutorial.

Im amazed they don't coach Outlook Express by default.

Let's face it, it took them years of complaints to figure out supplying AV or a firewall would be a good idea.

Hi again - was trying to follow this up yesterday and came across a link to a new Yahoo email service which I clicked on a which looked interesting. I believe it was somewhere on the NTL site but can't find it now. Can anyone shed any light? Is it any good?

Cheers !!
