Just a couple of points. 1.
I tried the suggestion made by Ms Ann no dice. 2. As another list member has pointed out a simple email informing people that they are back online would have sufficed. Please don't make excuses for Gordon's incompetence. Simply harvesting everyone's email address and receiving multiple copies of every email that is sent to the server clattering up once inbox is absolutely unacceptable! I have tried numerous things including trying to contact these administrators via Skype. They either don't want to take my call or they keep going off line.
