I was speaking to someone at work today who had a "VIP" account with us - this doesn't necessarily mean anything, but generally means a REALLY high spender or someone very important to TMUK.

Anyhow, the name stuck because it was really unusual - Vadim Jean. Anyone know who that is? Thanks to IMDb I do :) Vadim Jean is the director of Leon the Pig Farmer, Clockwork Mice, Burns, an additional director on Event Horizon and others.

Wow :)

My domain appears to be down, and I've had no communication from the provider.

I'm pissed mainly because for some reason, the professional hosting service run by someone whom I know knows better, doesn't have a backup MX record defined for the domain! So any email to my email address is currently bouncing - well... queuing first of all, and will then be bouncing.

The problem appear to have been ongoing since at least 1am today and appears to be affecting everyone's domain which is hosted by this company. Yet there's still been no update.

If I had more confidence in my ADSL, my own abilities and forgetfulness, I would change the DNS to my own machine and ZoneEdit. In fact I might do it anyhow, but ask the company to act as a backup MX. At least that way I'll be in control and can't blame anyone else for screwups.
