OT: email problems

Posted by Sandy on July 31, 2007, 6:46 pm

This is a blanket apology to anyone who may have written me at the
address below since mid-July.

As some of you may remember, our EarthLink email in this area was bought
out by Embarq a few months back. I had to switch, at which time I
discovered that I was going to lose newsgroup access and my web site,
all of top of frequent email outages from Embarq. The air around here
was sort of blue. ;S

That's when I found out that EarthLink could still handle my email
(giving me back newsgroup access!) for a slight fee -- which I promptly
paid. However, somehow Embarq managed to "detour" my email by having all
Earthlink email forwarded to Embarq -- an account I was no longer
checking. Yikes!

I only realized a day or so ago that I wasn't getting things I'd been
expecting, and a test email from myself proved that nothing was going
through. I've spent the afternoon on both phone and chat support, and
things are finally working (I *think*!) again. Whew! I've downloaded
almost 100 messages from the past couple of weeks and am wading through
them.

Please forgive me if I haven't answered a message you sent -- if it was
really important, please write again, just in case some messages were
lost in the shuffle.
