Can't Access Site From University Network

Post by a7xcncangel » Sat Nov 27, 2010 7:16 pm

I just sent an e-mail to busboard@busmail.org concerning the issue, but I just wanted to make a thread to confirm that it was me who sent it. :) Thank you so much for your help!

I just responded to your e-mail last night. I suspect it's your university's firewall blocking the site.

Just a thought; it could be due to the nature of the site. I used to use a network at a social centre that blocked BUS because of the content.

Splitimage could well be right. For a while my (edu domain-name) ISP treated the "there is a new post in a thread that you are following" BUS e-mails as spam :roll: . I sorted it with the Uni IT people. Perhaps you could try to do the same?

And die alone
Yet see the red-gold cirrus
Over snow-mountain shine.

That informs a clear bright eye
There are unexpected revelations
