Any ideas as to when the emails for blueyonder.co.uk accounts will be up and running?

Re: Emails, not connecting to server.
 

My email isn't working either.

Will we lose any emails that may have been received during this downtime?

Re: Emails, not connecting to server.
 

No, I shouldn't think so.

Do you have a blueyonder.co.uk address then?

Re: Emails, not connecting to server.
 

Yes I do. Let's hope they fix it soon.

It been down for awhile somethings happened to it

The very nature of the email system means you will most likely receive all emails once access is restored. Most providers make a number of attempts to deliver an email, so it will be delivered when they make another delivery attempt.

all VM's internal systems have been down most of the day,i presume this would include the mail server.BenMcr or whydoineedatech will be along shortly to explain im sure,im field based but couldnt complete any faults as details on phone lines werent available,we couldnt swap faulty boxes or modems either :(

the annoying thing is that virgins status page says no problems!!! i am waiting for urgent emails to arrive and nobody can say when the service will resume.

i have been told that ex-telewest areas are now ok (dont know how true this is) but ex-ntl areas are still suffering. :(
i spoke to a VM manager earlier who was in knowsley when it went,he said all the power dipped,including the lights,then lights came back on but systems were down,including their phones.

I totally agree with you.

Re: Emails, not connecting to server.
 

i think you are been a bit over the top, virgin can not be blamed for a pwer outage. you seem to not understand the problesm there is in getting a system back up and running after a power outage.

firstly the surge that has happened will mostly likely have wiped a few machines so they will need new hardware, second it will have corrupt data so they will need ot use there backu0ps (well i hope they have backups) to restore the data which isnt not a quick thing.

third email server takea while to get going so to say esicpally after unexpect shut down
