New sonic.net webmail application

We are pleased to announce that we’re ready for users to test our new webmail application.  It features a modern interface that utilizes ajax and html5 and supports features like drag-and-drop and has a robust plugin system that allows us to extend its functionality.  All of our existing webmail applications will be replaced by the new one on April 22nd.  We encourage users to start using it now – it really is better in just about every way!

For now it is available at https://webmail-beta.sonic.net

Please let us know if you have any questions or feedback in the forums.

 

Emergency ATM Maintenance

We are performing an emergency reload on equipment serving a subset of legacy DSL, Business-T, and FRATM customers in the Bay Area and Modesto/Stockton area. We will send another update shortly once the maintenance has completed.

Sonic Telecom Call Completion Issues

As of around 11:20PM PST we began experiencing issues with an upstream voice provider for our telecom network. We have confirmed it is an identified issue that they are working to resolve, and have taken steps to reroute our own network to mitigate customer impact.  For the duration of this issue, customers may still experience intermittent inbound calling success.  Further update will be provided upon outage resolution.

-Matt, Nathan and Tim

Update 1:48AM – Our upstream reports that the issue is resolved, and we’re seeing the same. -Nathan
