User reviews
Muss andauernd mein Passwort ändern, weil Web.de VPNs nicht kennt und es anscheinend als verdächtige Aktivität aufnimmt, wenn man mit einem VPN ins Mailkonto geht... Dem Support habe ich dieses Anliegen UMFASSEND geschildert und als Antwort kam sinngemäß "Wir können ihn leider nicht weiterhelfen"... keine Worte...
