Under TelstraClear, at a certain point I believe last year it was no longer possible to send emails via your Clear email account through, say, Outlook, whilst overseas. Of course naturally one would use smtp servers from overseas when you could. This was point in place to reduce spam being sent.

I was wondering now that Vodafone has taken over, whether there will be a change? I ask because Webmail is pretty basic and could do with an upgrade. Its an inconvenience for those who use Outlook where emails come in and are stored, and having to then use Webmail whilst overseas; Webmail may not contain those emails/has no allowance for formatting.
