Virgin Media still trying to fix its email service

Virgin Media customers worry emails gone for good

Some have lost access to their inboxes, and the firm cannot say when it will be fixed.

Although most people have had their emails restored now, ‘a minority of users’ still don’t have access to their emails sent or received before the recent outage.

My primary email address is OK, although it seems sluggish, but my secondary emails have been impacted.

This is causing growing problems for users, so I hope it will be resolved very soon.

Quote from Heero Yuy

I collect emails direct from the server on a 10 minute boundary using Thunderbird on all my mail addys. That way I always have a local copy of both received and sent mail. Nothing lost here.

Good plan, Heero. Unfortunately most of us wouldn’t have a clue how to do this.
