Is anybody else having problems either sending/receiving e mails from either fsmail or fsnet freeserve accounts?

fsmail has been offline for a few weeks now while its being "upgraded" Just started working the other day for me.

I logged a call as i doesn't say anything on their website. They were totally useless and didn't know anything about it as usual.

Yes - I couldn't send mails last night. Receiving (POP) was fine, but sending (SMTP) wasn't working at all. It was working fine this morning before work.

FWIW, Freeserve did eventually write back and confirm that they did have problems with their email servers at that time. By the time the mail arrived it was working OK again. No problems since.

Also if you don't use their connection to access the web once within each 90 day period they will suspend / cancel your e-mail account.
