Hi all - further to my note to Avril
Ross has supplied the following extra information
---
As to Avril email about accessing the Shoalhaven email. I too have the $2 leftover account. I have my email client download my Shoalhaven and Exemail to my email client with no extra charges from Shoalhaven. Also when away you only need to log onto your Webmail at any computer to read your mail at no extra cost! When you set up your email at home you set your POP accounts to Shoalhaven and Powerband but your SMTP is Powerband.
---
So Ross is checking both his inboxes each time and downloading all mail to his one client (Outlook/outlook Express/Thunderbird/Eudora/Incredimail/???).
He is effectively running 2 email addresses with all email received coming into 1 inbox
This is great in the day to day and may allow you to run 2 separate addresses completely
Be aware though that if your client only allows one SMTP server setting that you may not be able to send emails on your old account as the SMTP will not allow forwarding (you can receive them though)
Some clients (I use Thunderbird) allow you to set the SMTP server for each email account and would overcome this problem
Ross's solution won't solve Avril's holiday inbox overcrowding problem
So unless you can check your email (via webmail) while away I still recommend getting the email forwarded to an alternative address
If not your new ISP address then maybe a free one like Gmail which allows over 2.7GB of stored email (33 times the allowance by Shoalhaven!)
You have to be invited to get a free Gmail email address but I have a few invitations available
just let me know if anyone wants won
Cheers
MATT
