O.P. msgplus.net e-mail problems, who do i contact?
Lately my msgplus.net e-mailaccount has gone from bad to worse. I haven't been able to send messages for quite some time now, i could still recieve e-mails on the account. Then this week i noticed loads of spam in my msgplus.net account inbox containing strange characters (i preview them with mailwasher), ofcourse i didn't download any of em to my computer and bounced them all. I suspect it was a spambot sending those e-mails to me.

And now i received this e-mail:

From:
<administrator@msgplus.net> 

Subject:
Message has been disinfected : Your Email Account is Suspended For Security Reasons

Date:
Thu, 22 Sep 2005 16:27:31 +0100

To:
<********@msgplus.net> 

Please read the attached document and follow it's instructions.


The attachment is called e-mail-doc.zip wich i was unable to open because of missing or corrupted header.

My first reaction ofcourse was to reply to that e-mail but no such luck:

<administrator@msgplus.net>: host mail.eq-sys.com[IP] said: 550
    sorry, no mailbox here by that name (#5.1.1) (in reply to RCPT TO command)


So now what? What is going on? Who can i contact about this?

Please do not spam this thread with "i want a msgplus.net e-mail account" or "I never got my msgplus.net e-mailaccount".

Edit: edited out e-mailaddy and IP of mail.eq.sys

I get a lot of emails similar to that for a few of my domains and It's just SPAM/virus.  Not much to do really except ignore it.

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

I've emailed Sonicboom quite a bit over the past few months, and I haven't gotten a reply from him. I guess he's either stopped worrying about this service, or he's lost his internet.

While were on subject about the new upcoming service, I do hope we will get a better web-based client & better spam protection. I wonder will there be a decent spam filter in place.
I'm on: Twitter, Facebook, and Neowin

Were taking it over. Not sure how soon, but were working on it. We'll make sure to keep you guys up to date.

O.P. RE: msgplus.net e-mail problems, who do i contact?
I tried to login online today (to see if i could send e-mails from there) and got the following:

Fatal error: Cannot instantiate non-existent class: crypt_hcemd5 in /hsphere/shared/apache/htdocs/horde/lib/Secret.php on line 43

P.S. I'm still trying to figure out why i can't send from my msgplus addy through my pop3 e-mail client whilst i can through sites (i can send e-mails from Soundpack DB..but well that's to members there only). Receiving works fine (downloading to my pop3 e-mail client).
