Another Unable to access Pipex Account

[Noemail99]

Was Using Outlook 2010 - Now attempting to setup in Thunderbird and getting

"Unable to log into server...".

Have signed into Webmail OK.

So think I need account restored...? to get a connection in Thunderbird.

I have added email addresses and acct number to the private notes section.

Let me know if any additional info is required.

Thanks.

Screenshot shows a perfect setup that will authenticate smoothly once TalkTalk restore access. A request for access is in but heads up that you'll need to use webmail for a few days until the restore is completed.

Hi Gondola

I have changed the security settings to the appropriate ones on my phone,tablet and PC and have added my email addresses to the private notes section and so am prepared for my account to be restored.

Many thanks for your assistance with this.Screenshot 1

Hi Noemail99 

You'll need to retire Outlook 2010 as it's an outdated and inherently insecure product that does not support StartTLS encryption. Thunderbird is capable of supporting secure mail. Any other mail collection services or devices? All must use secure mail settings. I can help if you need help.

If you saw the message from TalkTalk advising "Our records show that you are still accessing your email using unencrypted email settings, because of this you will no longer be able to receive or send emails via this email app or software" then the email address receiving that notification has been limited to webmail only access as a last resort action by TalkTalk to stop the use of insecure email.

TalkTalk Mail webmail is secure by design using an up to date Internet browser.

Select here:  Sign in to TalkTalk Mail

Enter your full TalkTalk Mail email address and password, select Sign in.

You will be able to get email access restored to email apps or software including mail collection services so long as you're ready to use up to date and secure email settings for all the ways you view emails. We can advise on device and software compatibility and provide customer setup guides. Just let us know each mail collection service, each device, its operating system and email software including version that are in current use.

For a definitive check of settings take screenshots of the incoming and outgoing server settings, image edit to obscure the first part of the email address and upload here using the Camera icon (desktop browser) or Picture icon (mobile browser) above this reply area.

When you confirm the secure settings are ready I can request TalkTalk Support to restore full access. TalkTalk Support will respond here and access will be restored usually within a couple of working days.
