Hi, welcome to the forums.

That site is effectively an internal backend server to do with authentication and other system services.

What happens when you try to login via :-

https://signin1.bt.com/login/emailloginform

Hi - I get this error, and nothing I do can get me into BT mail - no browser works.   
Tried https://signin1.bt.com/login/emailloginform ,  but same result. So frustrating.

There are a lot of similar reports about this recently.

The thing to do is not use webmail and use a proper client or app. For starters that helps as a local backup, and far more robust. I agree that sometimes webmail might be the only choice of access, but really that should only be used when "proper" access is not available for some reason.

thanks, Andy_N , appreciate your reply

Thanks for your comment but I think we are looking for a solution for those times when web mail is the only option.

When you log onto your MyBT using your BTID and you go to "Manage Extras" then "Manage Email"  do you see your account there and is it linked to your BTID? Can you get into the "Inbox" from there?

I’ve had a btinternet email for years. Today i can’t log in beyond the samlfed.bt.com page. Same problem as you. Did you have any luck sorting it out?

[EmilyD]

I’ve got the same problem. Any other suggestions?

Yes, thanks. I can see the email account (and my other ones) but the next stage is logging into the chosen email account (different credentials of course) via entering the email in the box on the BT Yahoo login page. After entering the email, the next page is the dreaded samlfed page. In the past, sometimes by going in via Yahoo.com, I have been able to get in to the web mail, but not now it appears.
