Olga -- 

 

No, I am not with RCN. 

 

I'm with Comcast. And I don't use their email services, though I do check the Comcast account (usually using a Linux desktop email client) and empty it of spam and ads. I use Linux to do my desktop email client work, so my experiences would not relate well to yours. 

 

FWIW, I have not had any recent issues, except a brief Yahoo Web Mail outage during the past month.

Bob,

 

Is your provider RCN? My Mac email has also been having trouble since last night, and I am unable to get it going. I receive emails at opg1000 at rcn.com <mailto:opg1000 at rcn.com>  but cannot respond. All emails I attempt to send get stuck in the out-folder.

 

Stay well,

Olga

Guys,

I am having a problem and I need your advice. I have my own domain and I use Outlook to read my email. Outlook often gets stuck and I cannot send or receive email. Right now it is several hours behind trying to receive mail.

I can read mail okay directly from my host's web site. My question is where is the problem: my host company, my internet provider or Outlook itself? My host company claims they are blameless.

Also can anyone recommend a better tool to manage email.
