    It will most probably sort itself out without you doing anything. Try to access your mail using web-mail.

    i can access via web mail. I have a feeling it is something to do with zonealarm again.
  • Agree with espresso. Probably just an intermittent problem with your ISP. Others have reported similar problems with Wanadoo on this board recently.

    Took off zone alarm and hey presto it works. Might be a coincidence, so will down load zonealarm again.
