I used to use btinternet to access the web on dial up,but now i have broadband with another company
I think i read somewhere that i can keep my email accounts if i conn ect the old way once every 3 monthes ?
I am also concerned that when i log onto email most of the time the secure option is not there.
Is that a problem with no yellow padlock or httpS.(without the S on the end)
0r how can i get the secure page back(what is the address)
Cheers

you need to access via btinternet dial up at least every 60 days to keep the account active
if you enter www.btinternet.com into your browser than you will still access the secure web mailEx forum ambassador

When i go to that address i do not get the secure option come up so no padlock or https ?0 -
no padlock on that , the security is your username and password combination and BT's own security on the mail serversEx forum ambassador
