BT Email in Thunderbird/Live Mail etc..

[Simian]

I can't seem to get my BT Internet email to 'pop' on any externel email client (Thunderbird, Live mail, Opera etc...)

I've followed the setup on the BT website to the letter, I've even been on the phone the BT themselves for nearly an hour! and still it won't work!!..

I can access it via Webmail in Firefox etc.. but I want it to be accessable in thunderbird like my Gmail and Ymail accounts!!..

The Error I get is:

Anyone out there know how to get BT Yahoo mail working 'outside' of a browser?!?!?...

Anyone have the same problem, and give up or have BT running in circles like me!!..

At the moment I've got my email being re-routed to my ymail address!!..

I have it working fine on my android phone, try pop3.btinternet.com as the server as I use that one instead and make sure the username is the full email address ie [email protected] not just the part before the @ sign.

in TB i got "mail.btopenworld.com"

Username I dont use the full address just the name before @btinternet.com.

Also use it on Iphone too.
