is anyone experiencing problems with their myrealbox.com account? for several weeks i've had so much problems logging in using pop3. i get "max connection limit has been reached", i barely get any of the emails friends and family have been sending me, and in many cases the server is down, even during the day. it's a pain in the arse

yes ok it's free, but given the fact there are so many problems and non-existant tech support, screw myrealbox. i'm going with gmx and that's it

Not only logging problems, but my "realbox" lately is being inunded with spam. I believe some sort of people found a "hole" at myrealbox system and are using it to send emails in bulk to many subscribers.
Novell owns myrealbox, but looks like it has lost intere$$ in maintaining the service.
Before it was good and reliable, but now the quality is going to the hell.

i agree. about a year ago the service was par excellence, but in recent months it's just pathetic. not only all the frequent outages, but i'm not even getting emails any more. people send me emails, and it never shows up in my inbox

i've been working with gmx for a few days, and while there are banners, at least i can use pop3 without any ads at the bottom of the msg, and the reliability is much better

In essence, MyRealBox is a very large beta test site for NetMail. Many issues with NetMail are discovered and corrected through MyRealBox before they make their way into the commercially available product. Because of the testing nature of this site, service outages are to be expected from time to time as problems are discovered and diagnosed. We make every effort to minimize these outages; nevertheless, they do occur and are unpredicatable in nature. After a service outage, the result is usually a more stable and better service.

If you are uncomfortable with these service interruptions, please choose another email service
