Email question

[Richard]

When I'm at home, I access my email by going to www.bellsouth.com and logging in there, rather than using any kind of email manager at home.

Problem: Last couple days, when I try to log into bellsouth from HOME (tried at work, and this worked fine) I get an error message. Message says

"Session invalid.
This message occurs because you have either previously logged out or your session has automatically timed out.

Please "click here" to login"


When I click "here" to log in, it goes back to log in screen, log in and SAME message error. Frustrated, I finally thought to try outlook express and guess what? After I set it up for my (work) account, it works like a champ even WHILE this (direct login to site) gives me an error.

Ok, so what have I done to try to fix this?

1. Cleared cookies
2. cleared history
3. cleared internet temp files
4. Run disk cleanup
5. Put internet Explorer into "work offline" mode
6. Rebooted pc
7. Defragged

Ok, so to recap, I get the above error at home when I log onto their site directly, I do NOT get error when logging in same way at work.

Outlook express works at home and also at work. I don't WANT to use Outlook express at home (nor any other) because this is my "work" email account and I want to keep it at work.

Soooooooooooooooo, any ideas??

Try and reset all your settings in I.E. to default (Internet options). /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif Remember were they were if you have them set special. /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif Good luck

Try www.mail2web.com and see if that works any better for you. This is how I check my e mail from my girl friends computer, so the wife doesn't catch me fooling around.. Retirement is great.... now I have the time to do all the things that I wanted to do while working, but didn't have the time. Now I have the time, but I don't have the energy.. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

"Now I have the time, but I don't have the energy"....

Junkman, even if you had the energy, odds are good you wouldn't have the MONEY to do all the things you want to do now. Retirement isn't all fun and games.... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

THAT IS TRUE! but i would rather feel crappy and not have to go to work than feel crappy and have to go to work. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Junkman are you looking for work again? You better be careful here, one of these days you actually may find some.

What's all the talk about your girl friends computer, Samantha wants to know. /forums/images/graemlins/mad.gif

What! /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif JDgreen227, now you are starting to sound like me!

I keep saying the same thing to the wife, when she starts calling my tractors toys and accusing me of actually enjoying the work I do around the place.

I've been retired now 4 years and hope it goes on forever (started early just before turning 54, when the plant closed)...

Honestly though, now that I don't have to go to work, the line between work and play sure is less well defined... /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
