Email Notifications Failing (mostly Telstra)

Hello everyone. Seems there is an issue with Telstra (possible others) blocking email from our server. If you are trying to sign up I would suggest a different email if possible. If you're trying to reset your password and it fails please use the Contact Us page:

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

      Worked fine for me.
      Same offer as last time. If you don't have the email from Skoda PM me your email address and I will use the "send to a friend" option.

                Problem one is you are using IE.

                Seriously that sounds more like a Firewall issue. Are you on a work network or at home and if you are at home how strict are your firewall settings?

                  Very much doubt its a firewall issue K1W1, if you can get to this forum you can launch the site as its just HTTP traffic. That error message you have stated is due to DNS unable to resolve the site.

                    I have never seen an "operation aborted" message for a simple DNS resolution issue. The fact the the message says "cannot access" rather than "cannot locate" also indicates to me that it's unlikely to be a DNS issue.

                    When I deliberately typed in a dud address into IE8 I got "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage" nothing about operation aborted or cannot access.

                    This may not be a firewall problem but it's definitely not a simple DNS issue either.

                      Hey looks like we are both wrong.. its an IE trust issue with a component on the web site in question..
                      Official MS fix for this is Why do I receive an &#34;Operation aborted&#34; error message when I visit a Web page in Internet Explorer&#63;
