Over the past few weeks a few clients have reported problems when sending emails to Sky, Yahoo, BT and or AOL email addresses.

Sending an email from a domain email account to one of these free email accounts usually results in a bounce message being returned to the sender of the message.

It appears that this issue started a couple of weeks ago shortly after the datacentre suffered a massive DDOS (Distributed Denial Of Service) attack, at first the problem was intermittent and had little effect, but the problem slowly got worse.

The system administrators in the datacentre are now working to resolve the issue.
