Email down

Is there an email outage tonight?    It started at 1am.     Can't access webmail or pop3 on phone or pc.

When I think of Cox's email servers, this comes to mind.  A large room full of routers and storage somewhere in Atlanta.  Complicated to troubleshoot when issues come up, unless its a power supply.

    How weird.  I had always thought of open-reel tapes and floppy disks.

    Not anymore. Cox outsourced their email to Rackspace. Just run a tracert to their POP or IMAP servers to see.  Their SMTP servers are still on Cox though.
