Ask EU: Hotmail vs. Virgin
Sun, 22 Nov 2009 08:51:24 GMT
Last week I set my Hotmail account on my computer at work to download my
Virgin account email. I then found I wasn't getting any email at home on
said Virgin account. I removed the Virgin email address from my Hotmail
account, but still don't get any email on it. If I go to my account on the
Virgin website the ...

OT: Where's Nick Odell?
Sat, 21 Nov 2009 13:59:50 +0100

have heard from him for ages.
