I noticed on Sunday that I wasn't able to access the forum from work on either Mozilla, Chrome or IE. It worked OK on my phone though and it is working fine here at home.

The error message I was getting at work was something like the host server isn't reponding or couldn't be verified.

The following is copied from parallel thread https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?12,2144464,2144604#msg-2144604 and slightly augmented. I emailed Admin about this yesterday evening but haven't heard anything yet. A couple of tweaks of my Firefox config hasn't made any difference.

I'm getting probably the same problem, since Saturday. "Peer reports incompatible or unsupported protocol version. Error code: SSL_ERROR_PROTOCOL_VERSION_ALERT * The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified. * Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem."

This was using Firefox and IE9 on a Windows system; and Firefox and Lynx on a Centos 6.5 system. But this plucky little Raspberry Pi 3 running Raspbian and Chrome is getting through. All via home Plusnet. The forum server is, as expected, reachable from all these machines via ping or traceroute. Am browsing around for suggested local remedies, but first couple found haven't been of help.

Hi

Thanks for the messages and apologies for the issues.

We have a problem with emails not going out from the server, the mail host recently updated to a protocol called TLS v1.3 and they suggested changing the forum to v1.3 as this will allow emails to go through. However not only do emails not go through it affects beople looking at the website.

Apologies and we'll try to get it changed back to an older version.

I've made a tweak, can you access it now?

[ianr]

I can. Thanks.

While I'm here, does the mail problem extend to the message reporting system? I've made several reports recently that have been well evidenced but not acted on.

[Administrator]

Ah it seems it does. We thought it's been quiet on the reporting. We'll keep on trying to work out what the email probelm is.

If it helps, I eventually posted about three of them. They're still mid-page-1 of the Family Room.
