    I'd seriously recommend getting a Gmail account, or use one of the other popular, free email providers.

     

    For reference, the email's a freebie. You're not paying for it. It's also highly likely that HughesNet will stop providing it at some point in the future, as most other ISPs have done. It might also be a good idea to gradually transition over to another email because of that eventuality. 

     

    Hopefully the current issue will be transitory.  

  • is yours still down? Ours is not working either! Been on phone with hughes for 30 minutes, with no luck. 

  • I noticed the same problems.  At first I though it was my computer or my settings.  Now, I see that everyone is receiving the same error messages.  It started when I upgraded to  the newest package.  Though the internet is faster, the mail service is poor.  I never had problems like this with my hughes email before.  I have many emails which are critical and I do not want to loose them, I will initiate the archive process on my computer to play it safe.  You would think there would have been better migration to the newer sattelite system.

  • wgrobison1,

     

    Thank you for reaching out! Are you still unable to access your email?

     

    Thanks,

    Remy

      It seems to be working again.  I hope there are no plans to discontinue the service.
