Non-Authenticated SMTP and mail.sonic.net

Starting September 16th, mail.sonic.net will require all users authenticate using their username and password to send mail even when directly connected to our network.  This is the default configuration for most mail clients and will only affect a small group of users.  This change makes it easier for us to track and prevent spam from being sent using our mail infrastructure.  -Kelsey and Grant

Fusion/FlexLink Outage – San Jose Area

Update (12:58PM): A temporary workaround for customers served out of the San Jose CO affected has been implemented. Service should be restored for these customers at htis time.

Update (8:30AM): Att has a construction crew and splicers on site. Still no ETR given.

Update(9:30PM): Att has confirmed a fiber cut and are working towards a resolution. No ETR has been given yet.

Update (8:15PM): This appears to be a fairly substantial fiber cut in the San Jose area. I don’t have definitive confirmation from At&t at this point but all signs are pointing towards this. No ETR yet.

A portion of our customers are currently offline in the San Jose area. We are investigating the issue and will update this post once we know more.
