Problem at the Tiscali end, leave it a bit and retry.

It's been like it for a couple of days now.

Go on their help pages and see if they've changed their server details?

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

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 .

See if you can retrieve your email by going to www.mail2web.com that should indicate whether the problem is with you or tiscali.

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.
