Telstra Australia - Under Virus Attach
 

Telstra Australia - Under Virus Attach

Just seen a report on the "7.30 Report " why e mail on the Telsta (Australia's largest ISP) network are taking up to 2 weeks !! to be delivered.

Telstra's spokesman said that they where attached by a virus last week. When activated it turned their customers computers into super spammers...

In the two weeks of October the amount of emails sent on the Australian Newwork (All ISP's) equalled all the emails sent in 2003.

The other Australian ISP's seemed to identify and address the problem rather quickly but Telstra was hit hard !!

Poor Telstra !! Don't you feel for them
:)

i better lay off spamming bigpond users

So that's whats going on with my fricken emails... Thanks...:(

Spooky

they are fucked and telstra has no idea when they well be fixed

yeah i've had outgoing email issues for a couple of weeks now..

was wondering what was up with that.

My sent emails have been fine, but have not been getting emails for many days later.

i can setup an email account for you to recieve emails if you are in need


im here to help

hmm.. i've only had several hour delays.. both outgoing and incoming.. but i notice it more outgoing.. y'know sending urgent emails that stick in your outbox for an hour..

im also here to help

hit me i can setup email

Strange that's definately not happening here. Sometimes mail comes through straight away but mostly its delayed by days. I don't mind too much, as I know the mail will get here eventually but would not want it to go on permanently. Otherwise I will take up your offer integrated.

ahahahah ! those wankers at telstra.....

they've probably been in meetings for 2 weeks trying to make a decision to see if they should do something ... :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

it's still the old telecom to me ....
could call them PMG as well, they still act like the same ..lol

I have an account with Austar,Primus and telstra and the first two piss all over telstra. especially austar

Better not use Telstra as your upstream provider, they have a habit of 'Tripping over cables' for ISP's who are competitive with them.

They are required to provide the connectivity by law, but you can't help the accidental unplugging of a cable, and the 2 days it takes to remember which cable was 'accidentally' unplugged :)

im using ozemail looking for other providers with unlimted d/l/u/l

any around yet?

yeah the bums which is why I have 3 different accounts.
:)

Primus do but they tend to drop you alot which is probably why they give you 50 free calls

It would take Telstra management 2 weeks just to ORGANIZE the first fucking meeting....

Juicy, you are far too kind in your treatment of one of the last bastions of good ole, old school Australian bureacracy....

Bigpond my ass.... more like Bigswamp..

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Class action by its Telstra's customers to recoup losses they have incurred > > Now being contemplated
