Technical Support Notifications

Dear customers and resellers of Gossimer,

As you may notice there is a new link in the bar at the top of the Gossimer Blog (** Tech Support Notifications **) this link goes to our News section of our Gossimer Support Desk.  This news section is kept up to date in real time with any server issues, network issues/problems, and email server/service issues.  Basically, any problems or announcements related to the performance of Gossimer services will be updated there in real-time as it happens.  We will no longer publish these types of issues on our corporate blog.  We are going to try to keep our blog as an educational and informative resource for you, our customers.

Sincerely,

Gossimer Management

Updating the pop / imap settings on the new mail servers

Update: The necessary modifications have been made from our end. Please make sure that the required settings have been done from your end too. In case of any queries, feel free to contact us.

****************************************************

Please be advised that that the POP/IMAP records – pop3.mail.pw / pop4.mail.pw / pop5.mail.pw /
pop6.mail.pw has ceased to function, for all the mail accounts on our new architecture.

As an alternative, you can use the below incoming / outgoing mail servers in your mail client settings:

Instead of pop.mail.pw or imap.mail.pw, please try connecting to:

pop.mailhostbox.com
Or
imap.mailhostbox.com

And replace smtp.mail.pw by smtp.mailhostbox.com.

On the other hand, you can also update your DNS records to the ones below:

pop.domainname.tld IN CNAME pop.mailhostbox.com.
imap.domainname.tld IN CNAME imap.mailhostbox.com.

For any additional information, feel free to contact our support desk.

Unavailability of chat support

Update : We thank you for your patience and the cooperation that you have extended while we fixed our chat servers. We would need to perform another minor maintenance on the chat server today between 10:30 am GMT to 2:30 pm GMT and would not be able to help you via chat support.

We request you to create a support request or call us on our 24×7 phone lines in case you need to reach us. Our representatives will respond as quickly as possible.

We will be available on hat post 2:30 pm GMT today


Our support team will not be available on chat from 12:30pm GMT to 3:30pm GMT on 5th March, 2010 due to some unscheduled maintenance being carried out on our Chat Servers. You can raise a support ticket in case you are facing issues or call us on our 24×7 phone support.

We deeply regret the inconvenience caused and will be back online very soon.
