    Is port 465 blocked?

    Is port 465 blocked?

    Ok, what is local mail? Is it part of PHPBB or x10hosting? And how would I go about setting it up? And back to my original question, is 465 blocked? Why was it be working fine and then stop? I'm sure it isn't because I am sending too many emails a day, either. Only about 10 or 12 go out a day.

    Starka server status?

    Umm, constantly working fine? Because for the past 2 months I have had 30 minute long downtimes every day, and those stopped this week, and have been replaced with overall slow loading times. Yet cPanel always loads no matter if the site is down or not and says everything is peachy. Edit: Where...

    Would you give up cPanel for better uptime?

    Isn't cPanel necessary to setup MySQL? Anyway, I am in favor of anything that will give me better uptime.
