Over the last few days I have had trouble receiving emails from my family who have Gmail accounts. They either do not arrive at all or come in days or hours late. Have phoned PlusNet technical twice but they do not seem to be able to do anything about it. My son had an error message from Gmail who reported that PlusNet were not accepting his Gmail messages.
I have done several test emails from my husbands Gmail account and the same thing is happening so I know its not just my son's Gmail at fault.
Is anyone else experiencing these problems or does anyone know what I can do to rectify this please. PlusNet appear to have given up on this!

Would you mind PM'ing me a copy of that email, complete with headers?
Is it still the case that your son occasionally gets mail delivery delay notices like this?
Delivery to the following recipient has been delayed:
lizian@................
Message will be retried for 2 more day(s)

How are your family sending these messages? Via the GMail website, or using some other method?

My son WAS receiving error messages from gmail every time he tried to send emails to my plusnet email but he has now stopped trying and he has to phone me instead or send to my husband's gmail account. My daughter has stopped emailing me too.
Every day I do a test email from my husband's gmail - they still take hours to reach my plusnet account.so the problem still exists
I sent a support question request to PlusNet last Thursday 26th February and nobody has bothered to answer it yet.
I will copy one of the messages sent to my son from gmail

As I general rule I (and others) suggest avoiding ISP provided email services and using gmail or similar. Gmail etc usually provide a better service, and also it means that if you want to change ISP later you don't have extra email complications to deal with. While moving over you can arrange to have mail to your Plusnet address forwarded to your new email. (Unfortunately, Plusnet don't seem to have the option of an email that both has a mailbox and forwards as well.)

In order to look into this further, I could really do with this info:
Quote from: Bob Would you mind PM'ing me a copy of that email, complete with headers?
This will need to be an an email your son (or daughter) sent to you that turned up hours/days late. I can look at the headers and it may indicate what's wrong. Even if it doesn't, as long as the email was sent recently enough then I should be able to have one of our engineering bods check the mail server logs.
If you're not comfortable PM'ing me the information here, then feel free to add it to your open support ticket and I'll pick it up from there.
As to why the support ticket's remained unanswered for so long, I'm not sure. I'll give the relevant teams a nudge to make sure there's not a problem somewhere.

I received a reply to my support question today and they are asking for the emails and headers etc. I have sent all requested (hopefully) in an attachment as a reply in Question (reference 99973376)

But the headers you've provided are incomplete in that they don't reference Plusnet's servers at all. Because of this it's still very difficult to ascertain what's going on.
I understand you're using Windows Live Mail so here's what you need to do:
You can now open a text editor like Word, right-click anywhere on a blank page and then left-click 'Paste'. You should find that this copies the headers across to the Word document.
If everything's worked then it will look a little like this (as it happens, this one took about 30 minutes to get to my Plusnet account from GMail so I'm beginning to wonder whether or not there is a wider problem somewhere):

Should I do as you suggest on this site or on the plusnet website re- adding further comment to support question?

I've been doing a bit more digging into this and there's definitely a wider problem somewhere (meaning you're not alone). At the moment it only seems to be affecting emails sent from Gmail and it's not affecting everybody. Neither does it seem to be anything to do with our anti-spam filters because the same's happening when sending to an address with it disabled.
We've an internal problem open and our engineers are looking into it (ref: 84950).
For the time being, you needn't do anything else and I'll let you know if we require any further information.
Thanks for bringing the problem to our attention.
