JimmyT Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 What happened to myrealbox mail server? It served me for 1.5 year through webmail, pop3, imap, even wap and now I can't access it. Their page is missing as well. (was: http://www.myrealbox.com, mail.myrealbox.com and wap.myrealbox.com). No word from Novell who owned myrealbox, and the support team set the autoreply to send a general FAQ message like "Please check if your question, comment or concern is covered in our regularily updated "Help & FAQ" section located at http://www.myrealbox.com or if it is answered earlier in this message." and never replied to what happened to the mail service.

CoolCatBad Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 I got to their site OK. Maybe your ISP gotta problem. Always get some answers to these types of things here http://www.dnsstuff.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyT Posted October 13, 2003 Author Share Posted October 13, 2003 Interesting, it appears as if novell has banned all access from Virgin Net IP addresses. I changed internet provider, got virgin net and I can't check my e-mails or enter their site. All I get is this: (attached image) It was Novell's policy to ban any address or company that send spam to their mail server. Maybe Virgin was one of those companies.

Garry Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Or maybe Virgin Net's routing tables are just foobarred for the minute? Run a tracert to the site and see what comes up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redmondian Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 Who in their right mind would want to use anything that Novell provides? FYI Uptime: . 2d 02h 30m ROTFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyT Posted October 13, 2003 Author Share Posted October 13, 2003 Tracert results: I get some "Missing reverse DNS entries", it reaches destination after 11 hops but IE6.0 gives me the message I attached before, and Opera says "Could not connect to remote server". Redmondian, I used it because it has 10MB limit, no spam, pop3 and imap and web-mail, and I could check my e-mails using my mobile phone's mail client.

Garry Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 JimmyT - where in Lancs are you? You can't be too far from me. If your tracert looks okay then you could be right. You could just be denied access. I'd wait and see if it comes back online tomorrow. These things have a habit of sorting themselves out. You might also want to put a post on Virgin's newsgroups asking if other Virgin users are having similar problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
