If you're having problems specifically with e-mails, that will be due to either (1) a problem (probably a misconfiguration) with your own system or (2) a temporary problem at your ISP's end. The second is the more likely. Check your ISP's website. If they're any good (some are not) they will have good up-to-date service status reports.

I'm having no problems on virgin.net.

thanks guys, contacted server (which.net)and they are indeed down.

Ditto, no email this morning and virgins home page was down which meant webmail was also unavailable, All now back to normal. Virgin have had a succession of problems and are switching to a google mail type system, but not to be alarmed all email adddresses are remaining unchanged. Only gripe is it can take ages to get through to speak with someone and when you do, they are not always fully clued up as to what is happening at their end. ALL THIS TECHNOLOGY ehhhhhhh, great when it works a pain when not.
