Hi All,

Can i have access to BT mails through outlook 2010 in present scenario?

If yes how can i do it as i tried to do POP and IMAP settings but they arent working.

Also when i try to put the settings in adding manually through adding accounts, then testing gets failed.

Please let me know how can i access this thru Outlook 2010?

Thanks..

Is your broadband with BT? If yes then Outlook should find the settings automatically - it just did for me in Outlook 2007. If broadband is not with BT then I believe you have to sign up for premium email at £7.50 mth in order to have access other than webmail.

Are you able to access and use the BTMail email account that you are trying to set up when you log onto it using webmail.

BT Email

If you can do that then you can set up POP3 and IMAP however BT recommend that you use IMAP.

You are best to set it up manually using the settings as per the following link.

You have not answered my question and until you do I can not help you any further.

Are you able to access and use the BTMail email account that you are trying to set up when you log onto it using webmail.

Not sure what you mean by its your official BT account and not BT broadband.

Unless you are a BT broadband customer or paying £7.50/m for premium mail you cannot access email via a client such as Outlook 2010.
