Setting up dsl.pipex.com on a new laptop

jdm79 — Sat, 06 Jul 2024 16:04:45 GMT

I have a new laptop. All the instructions for setting up account say talktalk.com, how do I set up using my dsl.pipex address?

I use Outlook on my old laptop and Outlook from Windows 365 on my new one

It doesn't matter who your legacy email provider is, the setup details are the same, all using TalkTalk servers. Your existing login details should still work.

I have tried the account details as used on my old laptop but when I put in "smtp.dsl.pipex.com" for the outgoing server i get the message , unable to connect to smtp server.

You need to put in the settings exactly as in the help article, regardless that you have a pipex address:
