Email address deleted

[#1]

Hi ,
Have recently moved away from plus.net and have found out that my mail address has been deleted. Is this normal as when I discussed this with cusatomer service I was under the imporession that this woudl not be the case as I specifically asked this?
Thanks

Sorry about this, I'll make sure that the agent who cancelled your account knows the process for this. I can reactivate your account as a free PAYG dial account if you like? This will allow you to set up email addresses again.
*I've just taken a look over the account and can't see a request to keep the mailboxes open on there, did you request this on the cancellation call you made?

Hi,
Thanks for the response. I did ask at the time whether I would be able to still keep my e-mail addresses and route through my new provider and was told that this was possible.
I also had routed through plus.net a freenetname mail account as well which used to come down intro my mail client. Can this be re-activated as well
Thanks
Kwack

The account is now a payg dial account, unfortunately you'll need to set up any mailboxes or redirects you need now.

Thanks - can I access the mails via the webmail? or isnt this available either?

[#6]

It should work fine through webmail, even if you are connecting via another ISP

[#7]

Thanks for the replies.
Just to be clear. I will not be able to retrieve plus.com mail's through my current ISP into WLM, but can access via webmail.
If I wanted to retrieve plus.com mails into WLM I would need to do a redirect to my new ISP mail account?
Is this correct?
Thanks

You can retrieve them without problem using the Plusnet server
You can also send but only using the new ISP's server

[#9]

There must be something wrong at Plus.net end then as I have just tried to send a mail to this plus.com address and it was bounced back

[#10]

This is the reply message I just got?
This is the mail delivery agent at messagelabs.com.
I was not able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
<snip>
Sorry, I couldn't find any host named <snip>. (#5.1.2)

Ah, sorry you might want to give it an hour or so for DNS to recognise that the addresses have been recreated. Sorry for forgetting about that.

[#12]

Ok thanks will wait a while then. I can send using webmail but replying didnt work and bounced?

I woudl be interested in working out how to do this. I suspect my problems yesterday was due to the account being deleted, hopefully once the account has been fully restored I should be able to get this all back working again
Thanks

For the Plusnet email address set the incoming server to mail.plus.net and the outgoing mail server to that required by your ISP

[#14]

Brilliant - will try  that when I get home and see how I get on

[#15]

Still bouncing unknown server address?
any ideas
