I don't own the domain so I guess it must be the other option

Sorry, only just realised that by TT email address you were referring to Talk Talk doh. I have migrated from Talk Talk but it is a lineone email address that I have had for years, since before they were bought by tiscali and then talk talk.

As long as TalkTalk don't disable the email account you just carry on using it. There should be no problems downloading emails but sending may be a problem it TT do not accept SMTP from another ISP connection. If this happen then you need to change the outgoing server to relay.plus.net

Hi gizmo17,
What itsme has said is spot on - you shouldn't need to change anything except the outgoing server name.
Hope that helps, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do.
