it worked for me monday and even tuesday

MORNING. however, when i checked my email (and i was able to access it), i had not gotten any emails after about noon (tuesday). a couple did sneak through later in the evening so i guess it's up and running again. i DO know my personal account was hacked last week. a bot just stole my address book and sent everyone in it emails about tv's or iphones or some such crap. these aren't the good ol' days any more. we depend far too much on technology
