Email not getting through

peasblossom · Apr 18, 2012, 10:02:38

Anyone else having this trouble? Webmail is fine but a few new ones haven't made it to my email client. Thoughts?

No problems here, are they being marked as spam? What email client do you use?

1) Not being marked as anything as they aren't appearing at all. One I thought I'd sent yesterday didn't arrive... (afaik.)

2) Evolution.

If you do a mail check and it downloads some email, then check via webmail, are there some emails left behind?

I had a scam email spoofed to look like it came from IDNet yesterday, and another this morning, so maybe the servers are being swamped by a spam attack?

Zip happens, essentially. No emails downloaded at all.

No error messages. Will take a closer look at those links later Glenn, thanks.

I've swopped it to Thunderbird now and it's fine and have uninstalled Evolution as it seems to have a quite few problems.
