Using Outlook Express and suddenly can't send emails

[nicky58]

You're right David, you do start to re-evaluate your isp. It's just that I've been with Freeserve/Wanadoo/Orange for quite a few years now and so down those years it's quite a few people/agencies/companies/organisations who I've given my email address to. Even so, maybe it's time to move on - I've got a gmail webmail account now so maybe it's easier just to start using that address for all my emails.

Cheers, Nicky.

Your welcome.

I spent some time today looking at Orange and the stability of its SMTP service - the web reports over the last couple of years could hardly be called first class service.

I agree with Alan about Orange, I have an Orange pay as you go mobile phone but I wouldn't have their Internet service.

The History isn't good, it seemed fine when it was Freeserve, but when Wana'don't' took it over it started going downhill and major complaints about its service and poor customer servise. Seems like that hasn't changed much under Orange.
