norman Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Problem at the Tiscali end, leave it a bit and retry. Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian c Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Go on their help pages and see if they've changed their server details? If you don't know......ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted August 29, 2006 Author Share Posted August 29, 2006 It could be the pop server, not the email program. My mate is on Tiscali and he is forever having email problems.Are you using Tiscali B/Band Pete Yes mate, never had a problem before. I don't wanna phone em on ther premium rate number and get through to some operator in India thati can never understand what they say .

Guest rjbsec Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 See if you can retrieve your email by going to www.mail2web.com that should indicate whether the problem is with you or tiscali. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stealth Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 Thanks for the help guys. I noticed my anti-virus software wasn't running, so started it up, then tried again, seams to be all ok now. Very strange. Chubb Service Engineer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
