TalkTalk sometimes experiences intermittent problems with its email service, so you should try accessing emails via the webmail link: https://www.talktalk.co.uk/mail/
If you use a mail client such as Outlook Express and you transferred from TalkTalk to Fleur, your login details should remain the same.
If you have signed up to a new contract with Fleur, and received a new router, you will need to change your outgoing SMTP server settings to: smtp.fleurtelecom.co.uk. If you need advice on how to do this, please call 0333 320 4020.
We believe a person’s email address should be independent from their internet service provider. As such, we do not provide an email address service and recommend any customers requiring a free email account look at signing up to either Windows Live Mail or Google Mail.
TalkTalk is moving customers away from a legacy system to the new strategic TalkTalk email platform. They are communicating this to customers using pop-up messages when they go to access their mail. The pop-up informs them that TalkTalk is planning to update their email platform, and it will provide them with a new look and feel. Customers who are migrated will be able to continue to use their mail during this period.
TalkTalk used software to indicate which email accounts were inactive for a period of one year, however, the process did not go as planned, and so some customers who do actively use their account received a notification saying that they will lose their email account, when this is not correct.
To summarise:
• Customers who use their email accounts:
the accounts will automatically remain active because customers have logged in, so no further update is required.
• Customers who have not used their email account in one year:
TalkTalk has given these customers 30 days’ notice via email that they are disabling their mailbox due to inactivity as per their terms and conditions.
TalkTalk has given customers 30 days’ notice via email that they will be moving customers away from a legacy system to the new strategic TalkTalk email platform which will have a new look and feel. TalkTalk will reduce their mailbox size to 9GB before migrating it, as some customers have mailboxes which are currently too large to migrate.
These customers are advised to delete any unwanted emails and save any that they do want to keep onto their computer. The link to TalkTalk’s online help page explaining how to do this is: https://help2.talktalk.co.uk/how-reduce-size-your-mailbox.
With TalkTalk mail, there is a limit of:
• 50 recipients per mail
• 100 mails/hour per IP address
This limit applies to sending emails by Webmail and Mail Client.
Therefore, you may need to split the email recipients into smaller groups and send them over a greater period of time.
If you are sending bulk emails because you are operating a business, please be advised that Fleur Telecom runs a residential consumer network which should not be used to run a business. A proper business broadband package would include guarantees and service-level agreements, which is something Fleur does not offer because we are a consumer supplier.

We have been notifying customers that unfortunately, Virgin Media will be closing some email accounts on 30th June 2016. When Virgin Media customers moved to TalkTalk, TalkTalk arranged for Virgin Media to continue managing these email accounts for 12 months, even though these customers were no longer customers of Virgin Media. That time is now coming to an end.
If your email address has one of the following endings, you will need to take action as soon as possible. Once your email account is closed, you will no longer have access to your emails, contacts and calendar.
@virginmedia.com
@blueyonder.co.uk
@ntlworld.com
@virgin.net
If you use your Virgin Media email address with other service providers, for example, to log into their websites, receive newsletters, pay bills, or recover your password, you will need to ensure you change the email address they have for you.
• You can forward your old emails to a different email address that you have before 30th June 2016.
• You can save your emails on your computer, using an email client such as Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Windows 10 Mail.
More information on setting up an email client for your Virgin Media email account can be found by visiting help2.talktalk.co.uk/virginsetup.
