| Insight Email not working with Pobox.com Relay Service
Bloomington, Indiana. ATTENTION users of email relay service POBOX.COM. Today (Friday 5th) I can send mail from my Insight account and incoming mail sent "directly" to my insight addr arrives BUT the Email forwarding Relay service I subscribe to at Pobox.com never arrives at Insight. It's been this way for over 2 days. Can't get thru to customer service to find where all of my Email (hundreds) are going.
Insight is NOT receiving forwarded emails from Pobox.com |

| It's not with the service you use, but I've have an address I've used since 1995, which I used to forward to my insight acct. There were short glitches with this, but then insight (actually att) blocked all the forwarded mail for at least a day (in March, I think).
I turned off the forwarding. Then I added an additional acct to my Thunderbird to pop it directly. Have you considered popping directly from your service? |

I wish I could "POP" direct but Pobox.com is a only a relay or forwarding service. So I have hundreds of emails (mostly but not all spam) have vaporized. Hope no one sends me anything important because I don't think Insight is "holding them".
I think I'm screwed... Perhaps a Bloomington (Ind) tech might have an answer why? |

Maybe they haven't all vaporized. I also have a gmail acct (that I use mostly for mailing lists) which I forward into my insight acct. Here is one of the notices in my gmail acct:
Mail Delivery Subsystem
mailer-daemon@googlemail.com to ****.
More options 11:07 am (8 hours ago)
This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification
THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY.
YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE.
Delivery to the following recipient has been delayed:
*****@insightbb.com
Message will be retried for 2 more day(s)
Technical details of temporary failure:
TEMP_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 9): 451 Temporary recipient validation error.
Assuming you have changed your Pobox.com forwarding address from your insight acct to some sort of webmail acct, you won't lose any more mail. And if insight figures things out soon, at least some of your lost mail should get delivered.
I could be wrong, but I don't think this problem is specific to your local area. |
