Ian Macmillan Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Folk with a BT Yahoo! mail address have been warned for months that a change to just 'BT Mail' would be coming and, indeed, when the appearance in a browser changed a few weeks back I naively thought that was all there was to it. Not so. My turn came at the end of last week, and it has rather spoiled the weekend. Where I think I am now is that I've established 'new' BT IDs for my account and my wife's, such that they now work in my normal browser. However, I also use Mac Mail and that has not gone well - I appear to be able to receive but not Send from there using the BT address. And the same goes for our iPhones and iPads, all this despite following the instructions given for the transition. And I have to say that the new system's performance in the browser is cumbersome and desperately slow. There must be others out there who have gone through this, so how have you found it? I have to say that the acquisition of a new email address - gmail or some such - cannot be too far away now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alison Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Not sure about the latter, Ian: Hotmail changed to Outlook months ago. I think there'd be a riot if they tried to force us to change email addresses - I've had my Hotmail one for about 17 years now. I'll keep my eyes open for anything on my professional mailing-lists: I know various people who have been on BT, but I haven't been following the story in any detail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa O`Brien Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well I have had a BT Gmail email address for a good few years now,but hope it doesn`t start all going pear shaped.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2dancersmum Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 And all of a sudden I cannot access emails as the new system arrived unannounced yesterday. New BT ids is the task for this weekend and then apologies to the people I was supposed to email this week but I cannot even read existing emails let alone send or receive anything at the moment.
