Bathroom cabinet electrical shock?

Yup still here... (easy with a news reader ;-)

You could install a proxy like sygate or wingate on the PC, setup a port forward on your router and let the phone get to the virgin newsserver via that route.

No problem - glad it helped.

Sorry buddy, I was doing that before and getting told that my replies were hard to follow, as the threading was up the wall... but point taken :)

Agreed.

Thanks. Am using this provider now, so hopefully this will get sent?

Cheers, Dean

Occasionally, eternal-september get slow, but I'd give them a 9/10 which is not bad for a free service.

BTW, you might want to munge your "from" address to save collecting too much spam on it. This group seems to get scraped by a number of web based front ends looking for free content to sell adverts.

Thanks. I do seem to have had more than my average spam quota of late! Is my 'from' now 'munged' enough? Btw: hope you don't mind the slight plagiarism for my real address? ;)

some from here.

That would work at home but not for on the move.

It might if you use dyndns.org

Yup, anything that alters it to a non working address will do. If you want folks to be able to contact you directly, then you will need some form of human readable address in a signature or similar.

Nope, help yourself ;-)

Yup, if you have a static IP then it ought to work anywhere - the phone is told to go to a news server running on *your* PC. From there is gets redirected to the one available to virgin BB customers.

Without a static IP, then you can still get round it if your router can use dyndns - that way it maintains a name to IP mapping, and the phone can still visit a static "name" which will resolve into your varying IP.

Hmmnnn. Now something else I'll have to try and do :)
