Does anyone else on this board have a fencepost.com email address? We have been customers of fencepost since the day they started (5 - 6 years?) and really liked our short, simple email address. On Tuesday night my email server refused to connect, however the web was still working. On Wednesday afternoon I phoned the server to sort out the problem, but they didn't know why it wouldn't work. In frustration I phoned fencepost who informed me that they no longer provide email service & I have to change my address!!! I was disgusted with them and told the poor person on the phone as much. You think it wouldn't have been too much trouble to let their customers know that the email service was to be cancelled so that we didn't miss any emails - we run a business & I spent all afternoon making sure we hadn't missed anythink important, not to mention changing my Yahoo groups and contacting banks etc. Sorry to vent, but I am a very unhappy customer!

Whoops! I did mean anything, not anythink!

That is pretty disgusting. I am with Freenet (14.75 +gst) and on the odd occasion the net works and email doesn't but that would be about 5 times in almost as many years.
I think what fencepost did was TOTALLY wrong. Almost illegal surely? ihug is expensive isn't it?

Rachel,
We don't use Fencepost for our email address, but we are co suppliers, and we have had several reminders from them about the email addresses no longer being available, so somehow or other, you must have missed out on them, a bit strange....maybe only some of us got them.

We also were notified by fencepost that they were doing away with their emails

Thanks Ann & Kaye, I feel better knowing they at least tried to notify people.:/
