    ISP cannot ban web based emails, as this is a (loosly)breach of human rights...ISP's would go out of business if they did this.

    I use a web-based mail add for here too Amba. But if necessary, like now, or when cloning goes on, I'd use my ISP add ...

    Sorry iwanttosave - I misread your post.

    ISP e-mail adds should be used ... not web-based :)

    I know it's addressed to Amba westie,but what's web-hosting got to do with it? I'm asking sincerely as I don't understand the technical side of things ...

    nope........

    web based is the way forwards.....

    I don't really want to use mine either Amba - seeing as my surname's on it ... but if it made a difference, for the better, to the site, I would.

    I have on digi spy ...:confused: It's the only way you can access it ...
