    Looks like they're down alright. Tried to e-mail my old IOL address and it bounced back.

    I've had problems twice in the last few days ..... Fails to receive for a few hours & then apparently all those emails lost .... Then restarts but doesn't find old stuff?!

    Anyone know if this provider is on it's way out??? I believe it was part of BT but not sure now???

    I moved away from my IOL address last year. It's pretty much a legacy service so I wouldn't want to rely on it anymore.
