SYSTEM STATUS


No known issues.
July 1st onwards: A seed change in Spam behaviou has resulted in a significant number of domains being subjected to a collateral Spam storm. Due to the cyclic nature of Spam attacks these days rapid resolution is often not possible, but rest assured a large number of updates were made to both our local and the global anti-Spam signatures to help mitigate the affects.
Please note - if you operate a "catchall" email address, then you are much more likely to be affected by such attacks.
For more information on collateral spam, please see this Ja-Net article.

Technical issues over last 6 months:
[scroll down or click for announcements]

 

23rd to 28th May: An update issue on server Gene caused significant under-reporting in the webalizer stats for some websites. This has now been identified and fixed, but unfortunately it has not been possible to "backfill" the missing stats for the sites affected. We apologise for any inconvenience.

 

24th to 25th May A Spam relay incident at one of our customers was contained by our systems, but resulted in a bottle-neck being created for the delivery of email to users of server Gene. This has now been resolved and all queued email should be delivered in the next hour or so.

 

14th May 1530-1625: Emergency outage: Server Gene was offline for investigation and fan replacement following high temperatures being detected.

Announcements

Domain Registry of America: (and others) we continue to receive complaints/notifications regarding the activities of some domain registration organisation from our clients. They send out misleading documents that appear at first glance to be domain renewal requests but in fact are documents authorising the transfer of your domain to another registrar/host.

Please do not send these or any other domain renewals off without checking with us first - most of our clients should only need to deal with us for their domain renewals.
