I cannot access my website nor the hosting page. Is Proz hosting down?
Anybody having the same problem?

During this time, email and websites will go down as the server is
powered down.
Everything will be done to get these services back up as quickly
as possible.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause you.

Queue? Apr 8, 2013

Were emails queued during the downtime, or are messages received during this time now lost? I was expecting a couple of things on Saturday that have not yet arrived.

Planned maintenance on ProZ.com's hosting server Apr 8, 2013

Dear members,

ProZ.com hosting was down for approximately three hours on Saturday, April 6, due to planned maintenance on the site's servers. All site members who use ProZ.com hosting were notified of this change via email one week ago.

It's possible that you received multiple copies of the same email due to the interruption in hosting. If you are still having this issue, please contact site staff via the support center so that the cause of this error can be looked into further.

Some emails may have been queued during this time and delivered later, while others may have been bounced back to their senders. This is controlled by the sender's provider, unfortunately.

I hope this explains, but please let me know if you have any other questions. My apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Best regards,

Maria
