E-vaporating E-mails

 

One of the main annoyances I have with the computer is when I discover that my emails are going nowhere.  It can sometimes take a while to find out that your email service is out of action.  So what to do? 

 
Well, as a start for each day, I send myself a test email.  This works, as you know bright and early if you have problems and the test email doesn’t appear.   How do I resolve this?  As a first port of call I unplug the Router, that little black box of magic linking me up to the other computers in the house. I let it stand around for 5 or 10 minutes, and then replug it in.   That generally fixes it.  And then if it doesn’t, I go to the Telecom site called Telecom Broadband Assist and for the most part, working my way through all of the instructions seems to work most of the time.

 
Last week, Telecom sent me some  interesting information  about our email service being in jeopardy.  This happened to a lot of New Zealand subscribers a few months ago , and resulted in considerable mayhem, and it took weeks to fix.  Have a look at this Telecom site.

 


 

Its got a lot of detailed instructions which may be a help.
