How can I access my BigPond email mailbox using a different ISP?
It’s quite easy — the setup procedure is the same for if you were on BigPond Broadband, except for the following two settings. POP3 server: pop-server.bigpond.net.au SMTP server: (use the SMTP server supplied the ISP you’re using) Technical note: Since the unification of BigPond email between states, it is not necessary to add the state to the server name (e.g., pop-server.vic.bigpond.net.au). All the DNS names for each state point to the same IP address. At the time of writing, the POP3 server for the entire country had the following IP address: 144.135.24.
