Is it possible to access our own royalmail.com email address outside of work? If so, how?

Cheers.

Yes and no. I send myself emails etc when required. Just use your RM email address.

You cannot check or read your emails though as they are on the intranet and not the world wide web.

I've never used it myself but you can do it by using webmail. I seem to remember receiving an email about it with a link in it.

Giving the level of prying that the powers that be already have - why give them this bonus; unless this is just going to be a strictly formal RM to RM official emails

You need to perform "A level" tasks within the office to qualify for an account.

Are they still called A levels?
I thought Gove was introducing a European style Baccalaureate.

Blimey had to google the last bit.
