Some have lost access to their inboxes, and the firm cannot say when it will be fixed.

      I guess really long term customers may have a lot of years invested in a virgin email address and didn’t want to change.

      Phil Westlake, who used to design IT systems for several large UK companies.

      That’s who.

      I get that a lot of my IT colleagues don’t want to faff around with self hosting email, or even running their own domain. But I really struggle with the idea that those who work in IT would ever trust their email to their ISP. That’s just asking for trouble.

        No, my concern is that if you change your ISP, you have to edit a fuck-ton of accounts with your new email address.

        It’s like writing an ISP email address on your business card or your car. It’s short-sighted in my opinion.
