IBB pop mail issues

Nevyn

HAs anyone else had the eircom pop server refuse to let you send or recivce mail ?

I know We have IBB connection and it seems that the eircom mail hosting server will not let my mail cilent connect as an IBB connection is not allowed.

and yes i have looked about for other emailing services that will allow me to pop my mail but they all seem to have gone to subcription only if i could i'd change the email and never have to look at the eircom website again

IOL would only let me receive POP mail but not send POP mail when I logged in from IBB or any other ISP.

To your other point, GMAIL works fine via POP from IBB. I've no invites left, but there was a thread floating around....

Eircoms the same (it makes sense from a spam POV).

Also Eircom webmail is a bit odd.

Once you login to webmail.eircom.net all the mail you have waiting is moved into
a mailbox which is not pop accessible. That means if you use webmail then
you cannot then use a mail client to retreive any mail you checked on webmail.
It is left in limbo, you have to use webmail to view it.

keep your incoming mailserver as Eircom and change the outgonig one to smtp.irishbroabdand.ie.

It should then work from any mail client

are you using smtp.irishbroadband.ie?
