The life and times of Simon Wright and his broadband Web site Whirlpool.net.au.
Telstra BigPond is bogged down with mail server glitches this week, with some customers unable to send or receive mail again today.
Telstra has backtracked on its intentions to introduce three-gigabyte 'capping' and 'additional usage' options for broadband Internet users, but refuses to say whether it's canned the idea completely.
