Due to a current fault with email service for customers located on server piglet, customers are currently unable to send any mail via our servers, incoming mail appears to be unaffected at this current time.

Techs are currently looking into the fault. If you need to send email please use your ISPs SMTP server.

 

Update at 02:27 on Sunday 24th Jan 10:

Appears a local security update applied to our servers has amended the way customers authenticate before sending email via our servers. Customers need to alter the outgoing mail setting for each email account for which email is sent via our servers, please select log on using same settings as my incoming mail or alternatively enter the same credentials used to retrieve your email.

 

Customers who have tried sending email in the past hour may not be able to send email for up to 4 hours due to auto spam protection in place which will block sending email if you have failed sending email more than 5 times. If you still cannot send email after 6 hours please contact us.
