Re: [Eastern Ontario] Email malfunctioningsaid by peterboro:said by robman50:uh oh. it's doing it again. holy slow!!
It has come to a crawl this morning. Turned my computer on 7 minutes ago and the email thingy still hasn't finished the little pop up box and says my POP3 is timed out. Same problem here in Kingston. Very slow and had it request log in on one account. Never finished scanning mail accounts. |

Here in Oakville too - all morning getting those same old POP errors - you gotta laugh though, because when the email comes in there is a message from Cogeco announcing their new and improved webmail service is coming  |

It's over an hour now and one account will still not connect and the others are crawling.
This is like what the third time now this year we have had this exact same issue for customers. |

Year? You're being far too kind. Try past couple of months. |

Email is broken again.
'If you are having issues logging into our webmail service or using a third party email program (pop), please be advised we are currently investigating a system wide issue, and hope to have it resolved as soon as possible. '
No wonder why this mornings download seems way to quiet. lol |

My e-mail seems to be fine. I'm in the Burloak system. |

Mine is working OK again now (Noon). Always bad in morning when everyone is checking mail. But the system should be designed to handle that. |
|

still not working 100%. say if I email my self it won't get back to be until an hour later. |

I just went through this whole topic and wrote down all the dates that I complained about the email service.
It happened at the end of August for 4 days, 3 days in September, 4 days in October, and so far 2 times in November.
Wow that is just sad for a big company.
Email is working great so far. |

I find the original webmail does suck and it needs an upgrade real bad. I for one am looking forward to this upgrade, not that I ever use it.  |

Heyy maybe they killed pop.cogeco.ca, without telling anyone, and switched to mail.cogeco.ca? |

I know that Cogeco was running into an issue with their latest version of CSS not allowing POP connections. Other than that, there is a fairly large email migration going on right now and has been going on since August (that was the first big email outage, the one that lasted for 2 straight days). The work being done on the new webmail service is likely causing the issues with the current one, and the POP problems are anyone's guess. |
|
| |
Not to pile on, but migrating email since August? An entire datacenter could have been brought up in less time. There must be more to the ongoing issues than the migration or it's being unbelievably poorly managed. |
|
| |
I think Cogeco will not last long and maybe go under in the future because there services are starting to suck and their prices are way to high also lots of people are dropping them.
Looked at the calendar and the email goes down on an average of 3 times per month and it usually happens on a Thursday. I wonder if Thursday is maintenance day? |

End of day two and still no resolution for this problem. |

If you are using the free Cogeco Security Services (their licensed flavour of F-Secure) it is apparently filtering email incorrectly and that is why you are getting the 0x800CCC19 return code from your POP server. I have contacted the support line about this several times and have been told a couple of times to uninstall Cogeco Security Services and reinstall it and "see if that helps". It is a time-waster.
Their main response is to use Cogeco Webmail at this time.
I am exceedingly unhappy with the level of service that Cogeco is giving on this particular problem. Perhaps they should hire a third-party to help them out of their email-hell and give their paying customers a better level of service. I cannot imagine why they cannot simply "dial-back" how aggressively F-Secure is filtering. It has been a couple of weeks now.
Very frustrating. |

If you installed the new security suite (Cogeco Security Services) you can resolve the mail problem with these hotfixes (use the one appropriate to your OS (32-bit or 64-bit) For Ontario users: www.cogeco.ca/hotfix32 www.cogeco.ca/hotfix64 For Quebec users: www.cogeco.ca/correctif32 www.cogeco.ca/correctif64 Follow the easy procedures on the web page. Edit: this is for the 0x800CCC19 error only |

I believe that Cogeco Security Services is really F-Secure. Right?
Just that Cogeco swapped the logo to their own? |

It is indeed powered by F-Secure. |

Very frustrating. Some email showed up this morning and I no longer get error codes this afternoon. As the biggest computer noob in DSLR history I don't have a clue how to load patches and figure out if I have a 32 or 64 bit processor. I just mindlessly click on the F-secure boxes to put in a newer version. |

Thanks Asawulf. That fixed it!
Just curious, when was the hotfix made available as it was Saturday 10-Nov when I last called Cogeco Support and they had no idea of a fix ETA.
Thanks again. |

Glad that fixed it!
The fix was made available very late friday so it could have happened that not everyone was made aware of the availability of the fix till monday thru official notes. |

I think you're onto something robman50 - it is now Thursday the 16th and we're having the same ol' issues - Pop errors on 3 of 4 accounts. |
|
| |
OMG this is way to funny. I don't understand though why the email is working great for me. 3 accounts are working great so that's 3 out of a million users? |
