1347475 2013-06-29 06:26:00 We have a new laptop which has Win 7 installed. I am getting a message “PoP3 sever not recognised" Does this mean that I have to change my internet provider. We currently use Xtra – Yahoo - and I can not set up my email address. Any suggestions please Swampy (2426)

1347478 2013-06-29 08:00:00 Win7 doesnt have one. So you would have to install one Speedy Gonzales (78)

1347481 2013-06-29 08:31:00 If you're using the mail app in Win8, that doesnt support pop email accounts. So, you'll have to install Office / Outlook, or a free email program like Opera mail / Thunderbird Speedy Gonzales (78)
