Email server unavailability Sunday 27 July 08	Our email server is back online after failing early Sunday morning.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
Power failure Friday 14/11/2008 and Saturday 15/11/2008	Friday night the co-location center we host our servers in was hit by a power failure. After the power supply was restored our engineers restored most services through the night and early hours of Saturday morning. A second power failure hit the co-location center Saturday afternoon.

Scam email Saturday 19 July	If you have received an email this morning claiming to be from “gn.apc.org System Team” (Admin), please just delete it and do not attempt to reply or forward it. We are aware of this “ phishing “ scam and are taking appropriate action with other ISPs/institutions. We generally mark such fraudulent emails as spam, but unfortunately this one slipped through. Needless to say, we never ask for passwords via email.
Scheduled downtime Saturday 16th August	We will be moving the GreenNet servers in the small hours of Saturday morning 16th August between 12 midnight and 3am (BST). During this time your incoming email will be queued, and all GreenNet-hosted websites will be unobtainable. We will try to keep disruption to a minimum. Apologies for the inconvenience. Also note that a scam gang impersonating GreenNet is active again. Please do not reply to any email claiming to be from ‘gn.apc.org message centre’ and asking for passwords.
