winterbadger | DREAMHOST SUCKS!

If anyone was trying to reach me by email, the reason it was bouncing was because my domain host and their mail servers were down for NINE HOURS.

That's it; I'm going elsewhere. Over thirty major connectivity problems in the last month. I can't imagine how these guys stay in business.

EDIT: Despite their claiming that everything is fine (and my being able to retrieve POP mail this morning), the webmail for my account is giving me a DNS error.

FURTER EDIT: It turns out that in *addition* to their servers being offline, they have allowed my domain registration to expire! They've apparently been sending emails to my ISP email, which I never check, instead of, duh, to the email attached to the domain name.

THIRD EDIT: And doesn't it just figure that when I file the transfer action with a hoster that several people have recommended as very reliable, their payment process malfunctions and sends me a message that they know it's borken--they've been fixing it for a week...
