I would be interested to know how practices are getting around the problem
of not connecting to the internet and the clinical system at the same time.
By your first paragraph you seem to imply that there may be a connection to
both. Are you using the NHS Net or a firewall or do you physically plug
into either the clinical net or the internet, swapping between the two?
At the moment we have employed the latter using VPOP3 as the intermediary,
but it is tedious.When and if the NHS net is working at the right price it
would be our preferred option. What other solutions are there?
