Not just you, I'm on DSL. It was down earlier today, then back up for a while, and now it's down again.

@Teksavvy - this is getting a little tedious.

There are LOTS of more reliable and faster email services out there. Use one. No one cares you have a @teksavvy email address. NO ONE WILL CARE IF YOU SWITCH TO GMAIL.

If you give me the excuse that "i've been using it for years so all my friends and family and junk and blah blah blah is there" I will slap you. Slap you for not knowing how to email, and using one anyways.

Do you also think that porting a phone number (i.e., keeping your old number) is worthy of a slap?

It's out daily for me, quite frequently during the evenings. Outgoing seems to work...just not incoming. Everything else works fine and no other complaints. Just wish they could figure it out.

EDIT: Tonight is the worst email has been in some time.

Np it's not you..the fucking email hasn't worked properly for months...either you can't receive or you can't send and sometimes both servers are fucked...you call tech support and they walk you through the same old crap....no issues...everything configured properly....so then you figure..ok..I will use webmail..and that doesn't work either...
Fix this fucking mess now!!!!!

As usual, you are wrong. There are plenty of services "out-there" that will simply NOT ACCEPT free e-mail accounts. Period. So, one MUST HAVE at least one non-generic e-mail account.
Besides, I am frigging paying for the service!!!

I'll stick with my Teksavvy email, thank you...G00G is evil and gleefully helps Big Brother spy on its users.

^ Exactly right. Google refuses not to use your emails for advertising to you. And who knows what else. Using Gmail is like wearing Walmart/Costco-branded jeans, except with Gmail everybody knows for sure...it's nothing to brag about, it's mail service you found in a "dumpster". lol

Yeah, my tek mail has been down for a long time this morning, since before 4am here, which is all I can remember since that's when the coffee kicked in...

My motto is Anything But Google. With email there is a ton of choices; I use gmx.com myself - it is a German service so can be relied on, and you can use its pop and smtp servers with an email client.

This is ongoing and ongoing...the thing that is so frustrating is the hassle I would have to go through to notify all my customers plus the emails that have been sent to me that I would never receive..so I have to put up with this bullshit...a normal relationship with a supplier is not supposed to work this way...Obviously there are big issues that Teksavvy either didn't anticipate or that they have no clue how to work around...this is truly disgusting and I curse the day a year ago I decided to come on board here..this is a ship of fools.

Yeah, except they don't. Google hands over information when hit with a court order. TSI will do exactly the same thing.

Buy a domain name and you'll get free email from many hosts. I pay a buck a month for email (via a domain name) and it never goes down. I get 100meg of storage and unlimited aliases, auto-responders, forwarding, POP3/IMAP etc.

Not to knock Teksavvy at all, but their email is far too unreliable for me.

Since I have no choice but to stay with teksavvy for now...I have transitioned away from using their email teksavvy.com...It hasn't worked properly for the last three months...since this migration stuff started.. and created new email addresses tied to my website..these never go down for the most part....and allow me to keep in contact with my friends and customers...should have done this a while ago..the hassle is notifying everyone of the change...
There used to be a time when you called into tech support and there were no messages informing us of outages....funny how it is the exact opposite now.
