E mail issue

04 October 2009 20:41:36

Last Tuesday or so I noticed that site was very quite, there was only one or two mails coming through to me. I then noticed that comments were been made that I should have gotten.

Straight away, I said I had changed some settings, as I want to learn more about the computer, I have been messing around quite a bit, I checked everything, all seemed ok. Sent some mail from work as a test yesterday, they did not come through.

I rang eircom last night, credit where it is due, it took nearly 40 mins, but they stuck with it. It turns out that if to many messages come from the same site, some systems can decide that they are spam and can block messages.

So as a word of warning if you have noticed a sudden drop in the number of messages coming through to you, give your server provider a call. It can be sorted out, with alittle time.

Fran that's a good point. The best way around this is for everyone to add webmaster@garden.ie to thire safe senders list. This basically tells your email system that it isn't spam.

Pity Eircom couldn't sort out those emails from electronic companies in the Far East who don't want to waste our time!
