Well, it seems that I have to give Plus.net a big thumbs-up on what could have easily been a crisis.
At 2008-01-18 08:57:02 this was posted on their support site:
We have recently become aware of a number of PlusNet customers who are experiencing problems receiving email following the migration of their accounts to the new Postini anti-spam platform.
Email sent to customers accounts may be returned to the sender as undeliverable with the following server response:
554 No relaying allowed
Our engineers are investigating and further details will be provided as they become available.
Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience.
Kind Regards,

I was one of the lucky bods who was affected. So my website was down for a day… It only has nonsense anyway. This blog was still up so I wasn’t worried. What the great part was is that they restored all of the sites from backup, so by the time I woke up the next day, everything was working exactly as the day before.
Once again, the Plus.net people don’t let me down. It’s nice to see them back on form.
