Re: Slow mail servers?
Like pandora, was fine earlier. Now it's f***ed again. Especially my main account (the one that I use to log in with).

| Ditto to what pleekmo said. For me it is sporadic since yesterday afternoon. Sometimes OE connects quickly on both the main email account and one email sub-account. Other times only one of the email accounts will connect, the other (usually the main email account) will time out and generate an error. |

Yes, it has been sporadic lately. Last night I had problems with the mail servers but when I just check for email today it was normal.
So who knows what is going on. |

Thank you for contacting AT&T Internet Services E-mail Support.

| said by David :hey guys, if you can post here the errors you are seeing. For me, there are no "errors" -- just very slow response time to POP mail commands. It has been better lately, but sometimes Thunderbird's gears keep spinning for quite a while when it is trying to connect, authenticate, and download messages. Up to a few minutes, when normal response is 5 - 10 seconds or so. |

Same here. It would just give me timeout errors, if any errors pop up. Most of the time though it was very slow. |

It has been much better since Sunday for me though.
It's also funny that all last week when I couldn't connect with my primary pop account, my sub accounts had no trouble at any time connecting.

I had slow retrieval last night, slow sending last night. This morning it was OK. It seems like they mail servers need more capacity.
Has anyone tracked the time of day when it sucks? I bet at 3AM its fast as can be, and between 5PM and 9PM suckage is obvious.

I have always found that the web mail interface works OK while POP is struggling. Except for issues of address books and filters, webmail is a good alternative.
Well, I thought I'd check webmail just now before posting, and it gave me an Error 500...! But after a couple of reloads, I got to my mail.
My Linux mail server keeps soldiering on with no hiccups, along with email on my external webhosting service. Remind me why we need Yahoo? |

update please
Just a show of hands, or posts in this case. How many people still are suffering from e-mail problems?
has it died off at all or no?
I have been getting misc. reports it appears to have might been fixed but don't know. |
