No e-mail on legacy callnetuk.com account

aranj — Mon, 02 Oct 2023 16:55:00 GMT

I've seen a couple of similar posts in the forums these last couple of days.

Mine is callnetuk.com and whilst I'm not getting any error messages and can log onto webmail, I'm not actually seeing any new mail.

Thanks.

Is the mailbox full?

Thanks for the reply.

Definitely not. It's POP3, not IMAP, so there's usually not very much at all sat on the server as I pick it up multiple times a day.

I have received the occasional email today, but I'd normally get 100+ by lunchtime.

I have the same issue - I'm not seeing any new mail from my callnetuk.com address. I have been in contact with the help desk but they dont know what the problem is as there is no error message other than 'Unable to connect to the incoming server'.

I can log into my webmail. I can see mail up to Sunday night (1 Oct). I can send email through the webmail portal.

The mailbox is POP3 and is only 22mb. Incoming server is mail.callnetuk.com

We did not get any emails since last night either on our callnetuk accounts (we have two). There is no connection to the email servers on POP3 or IMAP. When using the webmail access, I can log into the accounts but the new email foder is empty (no new emaisl since yesterday evening).

Checking the error, I found out that the domain "callnetuk.com" expired on 1st October and the update was fed into the DNS system yesterday (see whois screenshot).

It appears to be that this is the reason why no emails are received to the server and no access through the domain.

As the domain is set to auto-renewal, the "normal" reason for non-renewal is non-payment of the registrar's fees 🙂

Really? This bill should be well below £20 per year.

Is anyone at Plusnet working on this?

Legacy email domain "callnetuk.com" not accessible any more - domain expired on 1 Oct 2023 !!

JamesRK — Tue, 03 Oct 2023 14:18:27 GMT

Prompted by the email problems with the legacy callnetuk.com email accounts, I stumbled over the situation with this domain.

It appears that plusnet have let the renewal of the domain lapse, causing all internet traffic to the domain "callnetuk.com" to fail. Hence no email sending or receiving possible any more.

I hope someone at plusnet is paying this $10 bill reight now to solve this problem

Nice one, JamesRK. That explains why senders are receiving:

0 5.4.316 Message expired, connection refused. Socket error code 10061. Last attempted server name: callnetuk.com. Last attempted IP: 15.197.172.60:25

72 hours... I'd be facing a disciplinary if it took me 72 minutes to renew a domain name...

Good detective work - I have escalated the matter.

I It too have the same issue on both my callnetuk accounts, except that daily e-mails from one particular sender *are* still getting through to me, as of yesterday anyway. Strange, given another poster's discovery that the callnetuk.com domain name has not been renewed.

Re: No e-mail on legacy callnetuk.com account

SwissRoll — Wed, 04 Oct 2023 05:59:47 GMT

Sorry, I withdraw the above posting. The e-mails to which I refer were forwarded to my local (Thunderbird) callnetuk inbox from another account. I haven't received anything from callnetuk since 25th September.

The relevant teams are aware of this issue and I expect DNS will spring back to life over the next 24hrs or so.
Thanks for flagging, and apologies for the misstep.

Can confirm that it is working normal again since this morning. All missing incoming emails for the two out-of-service days re-appeared as well.

The domain registry shows now a new domain expire date 1st Oct 2024 which is the standard 1 year period for .com domains.

Thanks to all who helped to solve this problem.

Re: No e-mail on legacy callnetuk.com account

aranj — Wed, 04 Oct 2023 15:55:38 GMT

Problem solved, though unlike JamesRK I've received very few of the missing ones. Oh well.

Re: No e-mail on legacy callnetuk.com account

JamesRK — Wed, 04 Oct 2023 16:08:29 GMT

Reconsidering my wording in the previous post, I have to qualify what I wrote:

It appears that we have received all missing emails. There are no specific emails that we did not get, and I sent 4 "test" emails to our own address while investigating the problem and they are there now.

However, there might very well be further emails that may be missing, emails that I don't know of and therefore have no means to look for.

If emails were lost in the period, we may find out, but I don't think there is anything that can be done about that now.
