Yes - I'm now using Google's SMTP instead. Far more reliable anyway!

Shucks - forgot to check the mail queue ... yes in Dbn, mail sent on Friday got out this morning. I've had to phone a customer and apologise, and say I am sending via my gmail address, and she says she received it - that is 10 - 15 seconds. Last Nov I did some tests when I suspected I was loosing email from iburst - most test messages via gmail to my mtnloaded email (or vice versa) was 3-5 seconds. While some cc'ed to iburst (or sent from) were never received.
