Migration of Student Mailboxes - Start Now
Dear Members: We have thousands of mailboxes in our Import queue. Due to a limit on the rate we can import your folders we urge you to start your migration WELL in advance of your student email account termination date. We cannot guarantee that your mail will be imported unless you give the process plenty of time: at least one to two weeks.

Phishing Email: CONTACT FEDEX COURIER FOR YOUR PARCEL
We've noted a large amount of scam emails reaching our members with the subject of 'CONTACT FEDEX COURIER FOR YOUR PARCEL' that then goes on to ask for your username and password.

As usual this is a fake email simply designed to trick you into handing over your login details. Never respond to ANY email asking for your account password, ignore and delete it instead. If you've mistakenly responded to the email, login to your account and change your password to something completely different immediately. You may also wish to inform support (help@aluminati.net) so that we can keep an eye on your account security.

Website Outage Report - DB Lock Error
 17:20 - Website email access went offline due to the master database server incorrectly locking tables and refusing connections from the web servers. This was corrected at 17:45 and service should be back to normal. We are investigating whether this error can be automatically handled by our failover systems.

Web Server Issues
 Dear Members - we are having some general webserver problems as of about 4:20 today which started with a gradual slow down of responsivness. We are checking the machines to bring them back up to speed. 

Update: 17:40 - after some work servers seem much more stable although not as fast as usual. Continuing to investigate.

Hidden Webhosting Files
9:25am - If you use our personal webhosting service please be aware that your files are safe but currently will not show up in your FTP or Webspace. These are being restored this morning and we will update this post once completed. 

 

14:30pm - Files were never missing, we switched FTP servers overnight and the apparent lack of files were simply caused by ISP's not yet updating their DNS record to point to the new server so you were connecting to the old (and no longer used) server.

Incoming Email Deferred [Resolved]
 17:28 - We have an issue routing to our mail spam filtering server that is delaying inbound mail. This is being resolved now and we expect to have everything back shortly. We are able to route around the spam server but this is a last resort as it will mean lots of spam will get through as well. Will keep you posted. 

17:33 - This has been resolved and all deferred mail should arrive within the next 10 minutes or so.

Temporary IMAP Problem [Resolved]
9:50pm We've become aware of an IMAP issue affecting a small number of accounts this evening. If you are getting "Authentication failed during communication with IMAP server. This is a temporary error." when logging into webmail we are aware of the issue and are investigating now.

 

10:09pm All back online, a database proxy server had failed leaving one of the mail servers unable to log you in.

Apologies for any inconvenience this has caused.

Login offline
11:09am
Login is temporarily offline due to an as yet unknown issue. Mail servers are online but rejecting logins, database responding, web servers all OK. We'll keep you informed and don't expect this to last more than a few minutes.

11:11am
In the time it took me to write the news post the service is back up. All online.

SpamHaus Blocks
2pm: We're currently investigating an over zealous spam filter which appears to be blocking large amounts of email. If you are receiving notifications that SpamHaus blocked your email, we are aware of the issue and are working on resolving it.

2:17pm: zen.spamhaus.org appears to be down causing the failure. Removed it as a spam filtering option, full inbound service restored. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Database Blocked on one Webserver
Dear Members - at about 19:15 today one of our web servers (handling about 50% of webmail traffic) was blocked, preventing access to the database. This system is meant to stop overloading and we are checking to see why this happened and to stop it reoccurring. All is well again as of 19:50. Our apologies for the outage if it affected you.

The Independent Thursday 29 January 2004:
"A recent survey of HR managers by Yahoo! found that 51 per cent would be put off by a candidate who had a "wacky" e-mail address. Although a university e-mail account is perfectly acceptable, it may cause you problems on graduation, when the address expires."
