Now this is weird.
For the last week or so I have been receiving messages from NHs.net mail
telling me I need to change my password.
Today I received the "one day to go" message, but I also noted that e-mails
were not sending via SMTP1.NHS.NET.
So I duly logged in to www.nhs.net, and changed my password. I still could
not send mail, so I changed my mail settings user account name from my UID
(Q******* name) to laurie.miles, with the new password. It still did not
work.
I then created a new IMAP account, with the settings as above, and
immediately my held up mail could be sent via this account. Also, IMAP is
now working - I could not get it to work in the past.
Has anyone got any inkling of any change in NHSnet mail recently which could
have affected it?
