Got this from their Tech Support at 05.08 this morning:

Thank you for contacting us.
Unfortunately, we experienced email delays within the last few days due to a technical fault within our mail servers.
No emails were lost during this period. All incoming emails were still received on the server but they were not delivered immediately to their destination mailboxes. They were instead stored and queued for later delivery.

As of today, the pop/imap mailservers are now working properly, however the queue is still being cleared.
This means that all previously queued emails are now being delivered to their destination mailboxes on a first-in, first out basis.

We apologize for any inconvenience that this issue had caused. Thank you for bearing with us.
