The following servers are being retired and will not be put back online.

Customers are suggested to use the following:
•
smtp.att.yahoo.com•port:465
•SSL:on
You are also allowed to use your own 3rd party SMTP server. This change
will not affect those services.
So far I have recieved no information on any other servers being closed. I was also advised that if you were using these servers, you should have recieved notice via e-mail by now. This is a more public notice.
If there is any questions please post them below, or IM me: David
08/31/09- Additional note
I have gotten some messages about smtpauth.sbcglobal.net and is it not on the list. At this time I have recieved no notice on that particular server and neither has my counterpart that gave me the information. At this time I can only assume that server is
not affected by these being closed down. Most people using these servers was back in early 2000 or later.
For this one here I will reference this link.

Still getting 2.6Mb/s after upgrade to EliteApparently if you use IPcop you might have to check your traffic shaping to ensure that it is working correctly and set at the the right speed for your speed pkg you purchased.
be sure to check the QoS of devices you may be operating when you upgrade and downgrade speeds.
