NTL pop3 mail service

[Merritt]

Any other NTL (Virgin Media) customers got a very very slow mail download today? its in the region of bytes per second and im on the 10Mb service!

No mention of it on the service status?

NTL's POP3 and SMTP servers can be a little erm... upperty depending on where in the network you are. Now you mention it my dilbert comic hasn't been delivered hmm.... crap.

Personally I'd just ignore the issue as it's usually their end not yours (but rebooting your modem can't do any harm) and it'll be fixed sooner or later.

NTL / Virgin are notoriously dishonest with their service status.

As Sarah notes, best wait a while and it'll come back...
