Morning Devonwoody

I've just sent you a test message by PM. I dont know if this will be processed within the forum, or be delivered via your ISP.

If your web access is OK, can you access your ISP's status page for their mail servers?

If you would like me to send an email, PM me an address and I'll pass on any report I get from my ISP.

Cheers

Dave Johnson

Hello John

Received this from my ISP when I mailed you. I've deleted the first part of your address.

Unfortunately there is no further information, but it appears likely that it is a problem with your ISP, assuming that I used the correct address.

By chance, I've just sent an email to another blueyonder address with no problems, so it doesn't appear to be a 'global' fault.

http://status-cable.virginmedia.com/vmstatus/summary.do

should get you to the status page to see if there is a problem in your area.

Can you PM me with your address to confirm it?

Cheers

Many thanks to above replies.

I have opened a second email account named
devonwoody at blue yon
and that is working OK.

So it looks like there is a bomb or blockage at my usual johndotjt address.
sent off an email asking whats wrong on that account to virgin, rather than pay 25p per minute :wink:

I will give it 24 hours to see what happens now.

 

[devonwoody]

Many thanks to all.

My problem was that my inbox was full. Nearly 7000 messages and I never got any warning, only messages stating it was compacting the in box to conserve space.

Then it did its nose dive. I eventually got advice from virgin using my webmail 2nd account.
It took a long while to delete those messages, they went to the deleted box and then had to be deleted from the deleted box.

So be warned it you get lots of those love letters, delete regularly.
