Hants,

As you may know Pipex took over Nildram some time ago. Pipex then sold most of
it's ADSL business including Nildram to Tiscali. Under Pipex's ownership
Nildram wasn't destroyed, however now that Internet idiots Tiscali are in
change, things are not looking so good.

Yesterday they changed the Nildram SMTP server to a Tiscali one and now TLS
certificates fail as the server names don't match anymore. Now the Tiscali
SMTP in-bound mail queue is too full and I can't send email.

I think a new ISP is on the cards in the new year, are there any left that the
big idiotic companies haven't wrecked...?
