Is your crappy Telus Email service exceptionally crappy again?
Anyone else have any information why my login to the telus pop3 server has failed 40 or 50 times in the last 3 days? Is anyone at telus willing to address the problem besides with empty apologies and platitudes?

My POP3 connection hasn't had any problems connecting. Are you sure you don't have something on your end that could be contributing? Like more than one device trying to check for email on the same account at the same time?

Nighthawk Yes I am sure it not my system, and only one of my devices accessed this account. It is very reproducible and I have logs of the failures. Each every logon attempt to one of my accounts fails as I type this, my other accounts are fine. May I ask what mail client(s) and port settings you are using?

I'm using the default secure port settings that have been posted many times here. I typically use Thunderbird as my mail client on PC and Apple Mail on the Mac. Both using POP3 and neither having issues. I dropped Outlook 2007 previously becuase it was not always working right.
