    Email

    Hi to all. Sailing on Diamond Princess Sept 20th from LA.
    I seem to remember that you cannot use Outlook Express for your Emails on the ship ! I am trying to remember if I had to open a new account for the trip with Yahoo for example?
    Can anyone verify this please?
    Thank you

    There is a trick I believe Web Mail google "your internet provider" and then webmail.

    I used it for my Outlook Express mail with Shaw and it worked.

    However you cannot access old emails, just recent ones.. any new ones you get if that makes sense.

    Sorry Cruise Princess. I am still not sure of the best procedure!
    Now if I register an Email address with, shall we say Yahoo. I have to send all my friends this new Email address so we can send and receive Emails while on Diamond Princess. If I go to Shaw Mail on the net I can still send and receive Emails, but I cannot see old ones?
