I'm getting fed up of this now. Every weekend 123reg emails just take an age to be forwarded. It's fine Monday - Friday lunchtime. Does anyone have any recommendations on moving their email forwarding on to another ISP with a minimum perdiod where emails could be lost? I am not bothered about the delay in mydomain.co.uk moving as I don't host a website under there
Interestingly this it said on their support pages when they were up that was
Why are my emails not being forwarded?
Most mail sent through 123-reg mail servers (80%) is forwarded using
the free service we supply to other email providers (i.e. yahoo,
hotmail etc) such as the forwarding you have created.
As this is a shared service, there are a number of factors that can
impact on service which are essentially outside of our control. Within
a shared service environment other customers through their actions can
impact on other customer's service on the same platform. Furthermore,
with it being a shared service, and more users on the service, it is
more likely to have in some circumstances backlogs of mail due to
rogue users or other customer's actions could potentially get the
server blacklisted. All of these factors can impact upon service and
are essentially outside of our control.
Unfortunately a lot of the emails sent through our servers are spam,
the other providers see this spam coming from the 123-reg mail servers
and they black hole them. Yahoo is one such provider; though hotmail,
googlemail, gmail ntl, Virgin, orange and BT internet do it as well.
This could cause your emails to be delayed or in the worst case
bounced back. To solve this problem you would need to forward to
another email address or pop box.
I really would love to claim from them since it's not long since I renewed with them, but for £6.99 I guess I am going to have to put up with it
PS to the admin - some pages here are loading slowly, since I think you have referrals to 123reg!
