As noted in EDIT mail works with Afrigreen - send and receive.
Problem on Vox with afrihost smtp

Most networks lock the SMTP to only their network, you could try public SMTP server if you frequently switch networks.
I used to recommend SMTP.SAIX.NET, not sure if it is still open but worth a try. I t should work regardless of your current network provider as it is hosted at the switch.
 
OK guys, looks like we're narrowing down a packet loss/ latency issue. Uncapped/ Business seems to see high latency.
Running some tests with our network team now. If your experience isn't great, please run a ping to 41.170.79.246.

What account are you on? I'm guessing Uncapped/ Business? Could you run a ping of about 20 requests?

Should be: ping -n 20 41.170.79.246 on Windows me thinks.
 
Terrible speed in general. Can barely connect to iTunes store - keeps timing out.

This is something we're working on with our team :)
 
I had to switch ISP's just so I could post ^....That's how bad Afrigreen is currently...

Thanks dude!
I'm guessing you're on Uncapped/ Business?
 
Gents, just testing the higher latency on 41.170.79.246 and it seems good on my end - we'll continue to monitor though.
Could you please double check on your end though?
