    Thanks for the heads up.
    It's my problem, it's my problem
    If I feel the need to hide
    And it's my problem if I have no friends
    And feel I want to die

    It really annoys me when they don't put the date on their FAQ pages. It looks remarkably like what I saw when the blueyonder.co.uk accounts were transferred to a variant of GoogleMail, in my case two or three months' ago.

    When are they saying that these changes have to be applied? I can't see anything about this!

    Thanks, custardy.

    I was a little concerned when I got the email as it didn't look genuine and hadn't acted on it. Sorted now, though.
    From Starrystarrynight to Starrystarrynight1 and now I'm back...don't have a clue how!

    Typical Virgin, outsources the email service to Google (its nowhere near as good as it was under Blueyonder/Telewest) then tries to get people to use some setting tool that wants to set your web homepage to his bloated drowning in adverts nasty homepage, install some dodgy toolbar etc.

    Glad I don't use outlook so not needed.

    As others, anyone know when the changes must be applied? looks to me I will just have to change the usernames and port settings. Works fine still on old settings currently...
