Fix

When setting up W10 Mail, on the Add account panel you need to scroll down and click the Advanced set-up option then click Internet mail. This provides all the fields which have to be filled in.

At the bottom you'll find four check boxes, ticked by default. Un-tick the last two Require SSL  for incoming/outgoing email. Then sign in.

Using the "obvious" Other account option doesn't make the right guesses. Sad

Hi, spraxyt,

 

Thanks for your help it looks as though that has sorted it. I did what you said and then put in similar settings to what I have on my I Phone regarding the IMAP bit etc and it appears to have sorted it now.

 

I did get into an on line chat earlier with the help section but they wasn't that much help and she said she would ring me but hasn't so I thought I would try on here.

 

Many thanks for your help
