Re: More iiNet Queries.

Why should I be happy? You should be unhappy.

By the way, can anyone who's using TPG let me know how reliable their
service is, for modem in particular. I noticed a couple of changes and
seeing as I'll need to change my email address anyway maybe a change of ISP
wouldn't go astray.

Kind regards,
Kelly Duffy

 Hi all,
 
 Seeing as there's been so much discussion about iiNet's service I have a
 related iiNet question.
 
 Have any iiNet customers recently started receiving spam? I have, and its
 driving me insane. Porn spam everyday and now some new email scam from
 George Duke appointing me as a trustee. Up until the recent MEDEC spam I
 had not received any. I'm wondering if iiNet has something to do with it or
 if I have just become unlucky.
 
 Kind regards,

Dear iiNet Clients,

The malicious mail attack has now ceased.

Countermeasures introduced by iiNet technicians were marginally
successful in decreasing the amount of spam received, but there
are still delays in the delivery of mail sent through
mail.m.iinet.net.au.

As the originator of the attack has now ceased their activities
the load of the servers are now under control, however delays
will still be encountered while the remaining spool of undelivered
mail is worked through.

iiNet expect mail delivery times to return to normal levels in the
next 24 hours.

Should you have any queries in relation to this matter, please
contact iiNet Support at [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Regards from Alan

well, iinet, too late

I have recently closed my iinet account in favour of tpg.com.au

I now pay $17 a month instead of $40, (unlimited time  downloads), i 
can connect whenever i dial and i don't get a dozen penis-enlargement 
spams every day.


For the record it took about 80 minutes from entering my payment 
details on the website to using my new account.

Speaking of TPG, I have just signed up for their unlimited ADSL service. They 
have already sent a couple of emails letting me know how far they are in 
getting ADSL up and running. Hopefully I will see my ADSL modem in the post 
within the next few days. I'll keep the list posted on how it goes! BTW, TPG do 
not offer technical support for Macs, so be aware! Considering the dramas 
people are having with iiNet ADSL, it will be very interesting to see how TGP's 
service stacks up!
