DNS issue at server NC018 data centre

16 November 2011 07:53:49 +0000

At approximately 04:24 UTC on 16 November, the data centre where server NC018 is located apparently experienced some issues with their DNS servers. At the moment we’ve only had one report from automated systems of a brief issue with SMTP on the server, but this was quickly cleared. There have been no further reports, and we’ve received no reports from clients related to this issue.

The relay server is once again back online. We apologise for the inconvenience, and are working with the affected client to ensure that this problem is addressed.
