Apologies, we're working as hard as we can to get OOF email back online.

The cause is related to the site problems, and is caused by a DNS issue outside of our control.

Unfortuantely, the people who are responsible for this portion are a bunch of faceless, useless morons.

I know how much you and others have on it, which is why we are so desperately trying to get this resolved asap.  I am hopeful that main issue will be resolved by lunchtime, but then it will be down to DNS propogation

Why would the OOF forum being down have any bearing on your emails?

I didnt understand that either......im the same i have several domains....all doing email forwarding to my isp's email.....I have Outlook setup with the domainnames so i just choose which domainname to do a reply.......they all go out thro my isp.....but when the get to the destination...it appears to have come from the domainname i chose.

I do have an 'anon' yahoo email account, but again Outlook retrieves the emails and sends via yahoo.....

Sounds complicated but its not, you just have to remember to set which domainname or yahoo the email gets sent as before you hit send  :y

Some people prefer to manage theirs with actual mailboxes per email address. Me included.
