The Mail #3 server is currently having problems sending emails to yahoo.com addresses. A domain was setup on the network and sent out many spam emails destined for the yahoo.com network causing yahoo to turn off access from our Mail #3 server for the time being. The reseller responsible for the domain has already been notified of the situation and the spam emails seem to have ceased. We have also put in a report with yahoo to have the block removed which should happen in the next 24-48 hours.
At 5:45PM Pacific it was determined that Weberz servers located in the Portland, Oregon data center were having connectivity issues to the internet. We currently have multiple technicains at our data center troubleshooting the problem. We check back at this forum or call us toll-free at 877-588-5461 for additional information. (…)
