Re: Mail Server Down

How come you gave the IP instead of saying smtp.ntlworld.com ?

Not sure - I thought that there was a diff. IP for diff. area's.... If the ip is the same that means that the whole of the u.k. has no email...

Good question m8 ---

Anyone else unable to connect ????
As of ten minutes past midnight, early on 10 Feb., I haven't been able to send or receive my ntlworld.com e-mails, although my NTL dial-up connection is working OK.

Re: Mail Server Down

ntl regret to inform users of the unfortunate demise of Hammy, the well known & loved network hampster.

Hammy passed away doing what he loved best - running aimlessly in a straight line, knawing away to himself whilst still providing the best possible support to the many customers he serviced on a daily basis.

Whilst it will be impossible to replace Hammy in the hearts and souls of many subscribers, it is hoped that the multi million pound deal for new kit will stop them all moaning in the morning.

Additionally, a back-up system is in place, and Gus the guinea-pig is on hand to step in, in the unlikely event of a local failure.
