POP problems

Hello all,

Just installed my plusnet adsl modem and all is working fine...... except,

I have created a second account with plusnet PAYG for an extra mailbox. I
have set up OE with a second identity and setup the account with the same
plusnet pop and smtp servers etc but I cannot connect and download mails
from this second accout via my adsl dialup (tough I can log in and view
webmail).

Am I missing something or are you unable to poll other pop accounts from a
plusnet dialup.

Thanks in advance

Alun

Make sure that under Properties / Connection for this PAYG account, it says
"use any available connection" rather than pointing explicitly at the DUN
connection.
