VM (ntlworld) e-mail - POP access
POP3 access to my ntlworld.com e-mail now seems to have failed - I get a pop up asking for username and password (which are unchanged), when I re-enter them, it still fails as rejected.

Bingo - I needed to update outlook to pass the whole e-mail address - mine has always been configured to just use the name, now it needs the @ntlworld.com as well. Im betting this issue will hit other people.
