Hi

I am able to login to my webmail and send an email to my hotmail account and it is received ok.

If I send a test email from my hotmail to my adsl24 account at the moment I still cannot see it.

Just to make sure it was not a hotmail issue I sent another test email to another email account e.g. googlemail and it worked.

So is there an issue with incoming mail?

thanks

Cecil.

the test emails have just arrived maybe there was a slight delay for some reason.

Just worked out what the issue is:-

If you use the adsl24 webmail and only enter in the username part and the pwd then nothing is in the inbox.:eek:

But...

If you use it and enter the full email address for the username and the pwd then the emails show up.

Is this meant to occur like this??:confused: :confused:

Thats because the default e-mail address is not just the "username" on its own. That "username" is not a real mail account. Your username for your e-mail address is the full e-mail address.
