With overseas visitors inhabiting the house, and more particularly the room where the pc resides, I've not been able to check email or anything for a few nights. However, it would appear as I give it a go today, that I'm no longer able to logon to my old network. Not surprising really. But that means I've no access to my old email address anymore. As they claim not to be able to forward incoming mail, I'm going to have to take up their offer of a 'redirect'. i.e. any incoming mail will receive an automated reply informing the sender of my new address. I shall have to trust that it's sufficient.
