Hello Robert,
Just checking in! I had replied to your private message on 12/27/23 but just in case you did not see it, I will copy and paste it here. I am hoping that together, we can find a resolution soon.
I understand your concern about the seasonality of the issue, and in my decade here have definitely seen situations (perhaps not specific to email) here where this is the case for a problem. Seasonality could also mean other factors such as an increase in spam, junk or phishing mail being firehosed out during peak shopping season. However, since you were still prompted to login/have issues in locations that aren't where your HughesNet internet service is the primary connection, it tells me that the connection at your home may not be the culprit. Please do send that screenshot you mentioned before if possible, or any screenshots you can get of recent/new problems. They are tremendously helpful when escalating.
Thank you
