irtt.org and its mail server is down again
Featureprice.com which hosts the irtt.org mail server is down again. This company has been bought by Atlantic.net sometime back. But today there is a message which says that all features hosted by Feature price are currently down. The options are to migrate to plans offered by Atlantic.net or host the site elsewhere. And that there is know guarantee given by Atlantic when the site will be up. Is this is a marketing gimmick by Atlantic to force all subscribers to their hosting plans? Below is an extract from their web page.
If you are on a Platinum or Premium Plan:
We will honor the remainder of your prepaid service if you remain with Feature Price or if you switch to one of Atlantic.Nets web hosting plans. Please click here to view and signup for one of Atlantic.Net's Web hosting plans.
If you are on a Mini or Budget Plan:
We will honor your prepaid service through August 1, 2003 if you remain with Feature Price or if you switch to one of Atlantic.Net's web hosting plans. You will need to start paying for your hosting account after August 1st 2003 you will not be charged for July if you switch now. Please click here to view and signup for one of Atlantic.Net's Web hosting plans.
Luckily, we are in the Platinum plan and the subscription is valid till September. Even, if we need to move the hosting to some other ISP, we still don't have control over the domain. Awaiting information from Shan for further course of action.
