Dull Dull Dull email-help-thread

Ok

I run my .com address using entourage on a mac hosted by gmail. Saturday was the last email into my address from a Forumite asking about a BBQ.

Since then, NADA tho I can mail out, but nothing in.

What's likely to be happening

I've used up my best turn off/on ninja skills

NOTHING

Help please.

Assuming basic stuff like emails are being SENT to the address (you?ve tried sending stuff from another address to be 100% sure?)..

1) Do you access the inbox through any other device, such as a smartphone?

2) Has your hosting company changed their email settings recently ? have a look at their FAQs on their website and compare against yours

It is worth remembering that any mail concidered as 'Junk' mail may well be sent to 'Junk' folder,

'Deleted' folder. Or even Deleted without being sent to any folder.

Check link from my last posting and check for any filters you may not of set up youself.

If someone else set up my email, can I access POP/IMAP myself

Argh..

You will be able to access your Gmail by loging into your Google Account.

If using Outlook or Windows Live Mail then you can add an Account

Windows Live Mail Set Up:
