Anyone here used Onebox as your main e-mail account, and used the forwarding option to read the e-mail in one's mail reader (OE in my case)? I thought of doing that, as Onebox has some cool features, such as being able to hear your e-mail read to you on the phone. But today my e-mail coming into Onebox has not been forwarded to my pop3 account, as I have it set up to do. That hasn't been working for hours. I e-mailed their tech support (can't find a phone tech support number), and just got a vague answer about sometimes there are glitches on the Internet. For the whole day today, the forwarding doesn't seem to be working. Now I am seriously reconsidering the idea of using Onebox for the e-mail address that I give out. Who else has used this service regularly, including the forwarding? How reliable have you found it? Thank you, Mike

Any number of sites are handled by servers which are/were located near/at the World Trade Center in New York City. The effects of this tragedy are far-reaching. I would give *any* site having problems the benefit of the doubt and would be very patient.

Unfortunately Onebox has been having this particular problem on and off since July. I've just e-mailed their support team - again.

I bet they send you the same idiotic answer they give me--that they cannot guarantee 100% perfection, since the Internet has many variables, blah, blah, blah. Of course, nothing in this world is perfect, but they should try to fix a serious problem like that. I've gone back and forth with them many times on it, and always get the same nothing answer.
