lycos mail

Morning All,
Having trouble with my Lycos e mail account, which I have had for fifteen + years.

OK yesterday AM, PM couldn't and still cant sign in to the account, sent a ticket to Lycos about problem this, so far haven't heard anything.

When I sign in to e mail I get a message saying sign in failed.

Any ideas?

Judging by the awful reviews, you should dump it and use a proper paid for email service.

I still have to access Lycos account as I have fifteen yrs of stuff and details stored on it.

So what happens if they suddenly decide to terminate the service - which has happened to many email services over the years?

Wow Lycos? I forgot they even existed. Brings back memories of 56k dial-up, very slow browsing and not being able to pickup the phone while connected.

Sorted, I had been fiddling in places I shouldn't have, I altered privacy settings to high, which was blocking things.

I would consider getting a new email address Smudger!

You should definitely backup anything you might need to keep, on a daily basis.
