Does an ISP allow FTP access to an email account? My BT ISP has 15MB of web space, but 2GBish of email space. I haven't found a
way to store anything on the email side of things.

No, email is a separate issue. For example, I pay Demon about 12 quid
a month of my ill-gotten. For that, I get some miserly amount of space on
my WEB account, like 20MB or something. If that were all empty, I could
FTP up to 20MB of files to that area. As it is, mine's nearly full of
pictures of me looking gorgeous many years ago in like 2000, but the fact
remains that this is nothing to do with email.

BT manage to rip me off for 25UKP. I find 15MB unusable, so I paid 30
quid (or something) for some space elsewhere, but that's proved to be
hassle with limitations on file types (no mp3s) and zero tech support.
So now I just use google, which is free for now, 2GB web space, and a
neat little web page editor. I think it has 10MB file limits, but life
goes on.

I just issue "ftp homepages.demon.co.uk" (IIRC), login as "fleetie" with my
password, then I can "put" whatever files I want there. This is the
kind of thing Oddjob was on about.

Email restrictions don't come into it.


Yes, thanks, thought so.
