RTFM??? Sorry, you've got me there. It's an Orange account because I was
Freeserve and then it became Wanadoo and now it's Orange. I used them because
I thought that my monthly broadband subscription would cover it and I could
just swop accounts over. Apparently you can't but by then I'd set up this new
one - it's free anyway . I've searched their web pages in vain and I know
what you mean about POP3 becuase I found the old Freeserve web page really
helpful. But the Orange one isn't and even though I e-mailed them and asked I
just got a bog standard reply.

Yes. Blindingly obvious you did not RTFM the Help pages of the web-mail service. Try searching them for 'POP3'.

You will be surprised to learn you are not alone.

Web-based will probably be http, not pop.
What company?
