Anyone here used Onebox as your main e-mail account, and used the forwarding option to read the e-mail in one's mail reader (OE in my case)?
I thought of doing that, as Onebox has some cool features, such as being able to hear your e-mail read to you on the phone.
But today my e-mail coming into Onebox has not been forwarded to my pop3 account, as I have it set up to do. That hasn't been working for hours. I e-mailed their tech support (can't find a phone tech support number), and just got a vague answer about sometimes there are glitches on the Internet. For the whole day today, the forwarding doesn't seem to be working.
Now I am seriously reconsidering the idea of using Onebox for the e-mail address that I give out.
Who else has used this service regularly, including the forwarding? How reliable have you found it?
Any number of sites are handled by servers which are/were located near/at the World Trade Center in New York City. The effects of this tragedy are far-reaching. I would give *any* site having problems the benefit of the doubt and would be very patient.

I bet they send you the same idiotic answer they give me--that they cannot guarantee 100% perfection, since the Internet has many variables, blah, blah, blah.
Of course, nothing in this world is perfect, but they should try to fix a serious problem like that. I've gone back and forth with them many times on it, and always get the same nothing answer.
