I've been using GMX Email for a few years. Back when it was in English and then it changed to only German.
Today I got an email about an update to the service, and about some security setting I need to change so I can carry on using it via outlook.
Has anyone else got the same email who can tell me what I need to do.
It looks like I have to do it by the 16th March.
Thanks
Here is the email, translated with google...
