Hi All,

I've been without internet access for the past week (business trip) and
yesterday came back and the site has been down.  It has been down for the
past 2 days to the best of my knowledge.  I called Interland tech support
and they said the site has been shut down because of abuse.  As to what kind
of abuse, the tech support has not been able to tell me.  I will contact the
sales department tomorrow and see what's going on.

I don't know the exact figures involved, but it's possible that the 'abuse'
is perceived spamming.  If you've got a lot of mail going to individual
ISPs/mail systems, it's possible you're exceeding the set limit each ISP
allows from an address/server before throwing up a red flag.

Considering some of the noise we've heard about Interland challenges, it
wouldn't be a surprise if the "Interland quotas" were relatively small.

Besides moving to a new ISP (and agreeing to a contract more in line with
current BrickBay traffic), you could try switching the 'want notice' emails
to a digest mode -- include several notices in a single email.  Often, when
I get one notice, I'll get several.  I could deal with a small delay in
transmission, to get a single message instead of multiples.
