« on: Sunday 05 August 07 22:28 BST (UK) »
Does anyone else have Supanet as their ISP?

Not personally, but I've set up routers and home networks for a couple of people who use it. They seem more or less OK. Don't like their restriction on email addresses to just 5, though.

Personally, I use Freedom2Surf and have found them to be good.

Commiserations.
Did they tell you beforehand?
I'd complain like @@@!*! if I were you.

Email should never be down from an ISP. Its perfectly possible to have dual-redundant servers, to upgrade one set, swap over almost instantaneously and resume without anyone noticing.

A system I designed 25 years ago could do it (except that was monitoring two nuclear reactors, not distributing a load of spam), so why not now?

 If they do it again, get a real ISP!
