Hosting and email provider 1and1 has annoyed its customers for the second time this week with patchy service.
The Register has been contacted by a dozen irate 1and1 customers, all complaining that their inability to access email, which the firm told us it had sorted on Tuesday [1], had resurfaced.
Many have had trouble contacting the firm. Our own call was sent to hold music for several minutes and then went dead. A recorded message informs callers the firm is working on a technical fault and is hoping to have normal service resumed "as soon as possible".
Readers report both POP3 and SMTP are a no-go.

The last email I received properly was 11:11 this morning, and I just get a send & receive error in Outlook when I try. Their webmail interface just gives a HTTP 500 Internal Server Error too!
And Mark asks asks what we're itching to know too: "Any idea what's behind their bullsh*t excuses?" ®
