Totalise mail not arriving

I ve used this (totalise) to send and receive email for years without a problem, now suddenly I can SEND  but not RECEIVE  

On my iMac I use outlook - I have checked with Plusnet and the agent verified my imap Settings.

My iPhone and iPad are are both effected

 Any help would be appreciated as you can imagine,

Re: Totalise mail not arriving

@ronkk If you have been using the account for years, has it always been via the IMAP protocol? Just wondering if you have exceeded your meagre server quota?

Re: Totalise mail not arriving

Good morning @ronkk

Sorry to hear that you're having problems with your email account. Are you able to locate received emails via webmail at all? OR is it just your clients?

Re: Totalise mail not arriving

I use outlook on my Mac but not on my iPad or iPhone,
I did check in with the tech dept at Plusnet who confirmed my imap settings were ok

I have deleted a lot of my “ sent messages “

Re: Totalise mail not arriving

I have updated my Plusnet password as the the system asked. Now emails have started to come thro. My previous password was letters and numbers and I have used it for many years - now it asks for a special character.

I am now cautiously optimistic that this may have fixed the problem.

Re: Totalise mail not arriving

@ronkk I suggest you keep your 'sent' and 'deleted' folders as empty as possible - the 250MB allowance on those accounts is not much by todays standards.

Thanks, I have created a folder on the Mac and dragged the sent items that I should keep for a while into that area.
