Question Are there problems again with e-mail

Outlook Express.

I keep getting asked to enter my password again.
The request keeps recurring.
I cannot see any problems noted in the server status on the homepage.
Is anyone else having problems.

Re: Are there problems again with e-mail

I've had the password problem for some time (i know the paswords are correct as they're all the same one.) I suspect that the status should be taken with a pinch of salt as it always comes back again no matter how often they say its fixed.

I think what NTL should do is invest in triple redundancy for the password authentication server and buy another couple of hamsters to power the machine and a that way they could do the work in shifts

Re: Are there problems again with e-mail

I do not think this is related but could be a record even for NTL.
Received at 20:23 24/12/03 an e-mail that was sent out 18:53 08/10/03.
I know it came from America and reckon I could have walked there and back quicker.

Yep beats my record delay of just under a month to get an email from a friend in the states.

Did you check the headers to see when NTL's server actually received it ?

Re: Are there problems again with e-mail

Recieved another seven this morning.
Silly me, this time I checked the headers and hands up to NTL they were not received until today.
I apologise to NTL over this one.
Does make me wonder where the hell they have been for over two months though.
