Web access to my (ntlworld) email is via "webmail.ntlworld.com". The standard virgin email web page stopped working for my email address Aug 2008 due to a server re-jig. Virgin Media won't do anything about it short of giving me a brand new virgin email address and insist I use this url.

I can access my email via the web from any pc but when I try from my Nokia 6234 it returns " there is a problem with the connection please try later". I can access other wap sites OK. Questions:

(a)is there something mobile -unfriendly about sites beginning http://webmail

(b) do I need some special settings in my nokia.

BTW, the Nokia 6234 is a vodafone-specific version of the 6233. I am now on a Virgin sim-only deal.

There shouldn't be - it should simply be resolved to an IP address via DNS, irrespective of the name of the node.

But you could try entering Login (http://81.103.221.25) instead of webmail.ntlworld.com, just to check.

Did it (your webmail) ever work before with your Nokia 6234?

I'm ex-blueyonder, and my webmail page is https://webmail.blueyonder.co.uk/ - note the use of https.

Perhaps http / https is something to investigate?
