Excluded email on apps / devices

[NickD66]

Hi,

I appear to have my email excluded/blocked from apps / devices. I am using the recommended server settings. I have not changed server settings since the major security change and update. I have been excluded for 6 days already. Web mail still works. Both MS Laptop and iPhone are excluded.

When the security settings change was made I was excluded for nearly a month. This was massively disruptive and finding help and a solution was very time consuming. Eventually the community experts arranged for me to be put back on "the list".

Please can you help get me reconnected?

No its only based on the client's security settings. The VPN should be transparent.

Hi Ady,

Thanks for your assistance with this. I'm beyond my technical knowledge now, but...  I am running SurfShark VPN on my laptop and I have a vague recollection that at least one email provider has a problem regarding devices with VPN's on them. Can you give me a technical view on whether this could have any bearing on the issue of my devices being blocked from the TalkTalk email server?

Cheers

Nick

Thanks Nick, I'll get it raised again and investigated as you're sure everything has the right settings.
