Your connection went mad for about 30 mins but then returned to normal. reasons that cause it are so many impossible to say without investigation

Perhaps it was virgin' on the ridiculous...

well - my emails all came tumbling in just before 11pm - what a relief !

The only ones I lost were those that had been bounced back to the sender with the permanent delivery failure - there weren't many of those [ 4 or 5 ] Everything else , though I read them on Webmail once that was available, I had marked as unread so they would come down once the problem was solved.
