No emails

Post by barry » Wed 04 Jul 2018 17:03

Is there any problems with the servers as I do not appear to be receiving any emails through my domain name. Anyone who trys to send me a email is getting this response

The response was:

550 The mail server could not deliver mail to my email address. The account or domain may not exist, they may be blacklisted, or missing the proper dns entries.

Hi Barry,

There was a problem yesterday. The BCA webserver was under considerable load because of the interest in the British Cave Rescue Council site due to the Thailand cave rescue.

The BCRC site is hosted on the BCA Server. I moved the BCRC site to a separate server to isolate the problem. The BCA server returned to normal about 19:00 yesterday.

If you are still having problems please let me know.

Still cannot receive emails sent to my domain address. My wife who also has a domain name through the BCA is also experiencing the same issue.
