BigPond is a great mailing service which served a wide range of users till 2012 when Telstra announced that they are going to upgrade the Webmail service. Since then it has been rebranded to Telstra email but the switch has been quite smooth because the existing users of the previous version did not have to re-register but only log in to get into their account. So, if you want to setup Telstra email too on your laptop, you have visited the right place.
If you are an existing user of the webmail service, you will need to upgrade your existing account to Telstra. To set up the latest version of the account on your device, you will require Telstra username and password if you don’t have one. As per the BigPond Support Australia, the setup and use of your account may require data usage charges.
