Having said that, remember that no website host guarantees 100% reliability - a hundred hours or so offline per year is an industry standard. |

Anyone else had a similar problem????? :angry Sounds like you are dialed up to another ISP and trying to use Xtra's SMTP server . Incidentally you should start your own thread rather than hijacking someone elses . Having said that, remember that no website host guarantees 100% reliability - a hundred hours or so offline per year is an industry standard . A hundred hours, the equivalent of over 4 days continuous down time . Sounds pretty unrealisitic to me - very few hosts would get away with being that screwed for that long . |

Sounds pretty unrealisitic to me - very few hosts would get away with being that screwed for that long. Wanna bet? The reason they can and do get away with it, is 1) Downtime for maintenance and upgrades means that the servers run reliably the other 95+ percent of the time, and 2) people don't look at their websites all day every day, so most downtime goes completely unnoticed. |
