13 seconds to the login screen.
85 seconds from clicking 'Login' to a usable screen. (second attempt 75 seconds)
Similar times for betawebmail.

Re: Member Centre Login failed Webmail is down as is RSS Feed of Service Status

I am also having trouble with e mail still.  It's taking ages to log in, when I do manage I can't delete e mails, and also can't send any.  I've tried twice! So, I thought I would drop a post in to say it's not back to normal yet.

As you've guessed the last bout of maintenance hasn't helped. We're about to make a second pass...

When's this work happening?
Now.
What does it affect?
Access to our Webmail platform.

About fifteen minutes.

The emergency maintenance performed earlier this afternoon was not successful so we're carrying out further maintenance in a bid to restore service.

Is there anything else I need to know?

The maintenance is complete and things look a lot snappier for me now (although to be fair they did initially last time). How's everybody else finding it?

Is the beta webmail meant to be this sluggish?

Re: Member Centre Login failed Webmail is down as is RSS Feed of Service Status

Thanks for the feedback.
It's looking like it's probably a hardware fault affecting one of the Webmail servers. Things should be back up now but there's still some work to be done behind the scenes to fix the underlying issue. Fortunately, little of that work should be intrusive.
Apologies again for the extended period of time things have been down for.

Re: Member Centre Login failed Webmail is down as is RSS Feed of Service Status

Beta webmail now back to normal for me - thanks to all at Plusnet for resolving this, if not quickly, with at least a constant supply of information as to what was happening; more I'm sure than we would get with a lot of other providers.
