The GOOD news is that I seem to have fixed it this morning - I suspect the fear of having to speak to an engineer about all the technical terms in French galvanised me to try more and more options.  The secret appears to be that the Nom de Compte is actually NOT what they tell me it is on the sheet I printed direct from their account set up screen and NOT what their automatic set-up system installed! It is in fact my tele2 email address minus the @tele2.fr.  Absolutely nowhere do they tell you this and I only discovered it by trial and error.  By the way, the right outgoing server port is in fact 587.  I believe it's something to do with the fact that port 25 can't now be used when authentication is needed.  Thanks to everyone who came up with ideas on this, I really appreciate the hand-holding and assistance.  Now on to the next problem - what I need to make my PC interact with the wireless aspect of the livebox...    Report
