Not if you call almost doubling your phone bill "not particularly
expensive", I guess.  Email isn't really worth that much to me any
more anyway.

I'd have not only expected things to have returned to normal by now, but
was awaiting quite a large packet as the backlog cleared, but that just
hasn't happened, and I'm now wondering if somebody's system hasn't actually
somehow lost or deleted the missing mail instead.

Only HS_MODEMS, and that's been completely dead as well.  It's a worry.
