they posted this today with a 4 day old posting date which is annoying the T**s off me as i have been trying to fix it for almost 2 weeks as BT told me there was no problem :crying:

Now that's a strange one. How on earth can that happen?

BT told me there was no problem :crying:

I suppose it wasn't to them...

Its BT again pissing about with port numbers on their mail server. Every so often they come up with a bright idea and change the port numver or bloack email addresses outbount that don't have a bt domain name, or deside to use out going encryption or.... grrrrr

Thats progress for you, think maybe the old chiseled stone tablets on XP are ok

Thanks Rick. I'll be getting a new computer later this year, and I'm with BT too, so information like this is very much appreciated.
