The once popular managed UK service provider Easynet, which finally became defunct in 2015 after the last bits of their business were sold off to Interoute (GTT) for an enterprise value of \u00a3402m (here<\/a>), has begun informing long-time users of their legacy email platform (running since the 1990s) that the service is due to close.<\/p>\n

In case anybody has forgotten, Easynet was one of the first operators to deploy an unbundled (LLU) copper broadband and phone network in the United Kingdom, and they were later snapped up by Sky Broadband<\/a> in 2005. Sky eventually sold what was left of Easynet to private equity firm LDC in 2010 and in 2013 Easynet was acquired again, this time by the time by the MDNX Group.<\/p>\n

Suffice to say that Easynet is a familiar name to industry veterans, although we suspect that most will still be surprised to learn that the Easynet.co.uk<\/a> domain has – for all these years since the brand vanished – continued to be used by an unspecified number of users as part of their legacy email platform.<\/p>\n

Sadly, it looks as that final vestige of a once familiar brand will soon be vanishing too. Several members of ISPreview’s Forum<\/a>, who continue to use the old email platform, have been informed by GTT that the Easynet email service will be terminated on 31st August 2023<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

GTT’s Email to Easynet’s Remaining Email Users<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dear Valued Client,<\/p>\n

We are writing to inform you about an important update regarding the email services under the @easynet.co.uk domain. We will terminate this email service, effective 31 August 2023.<\/p>\n

We understand that this notice may come as a disappointment, and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. We want to do everything possible to provide enough time to allow you to transition to another email service provider.<\/p>\n

GTT has outlined the following information:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Termination Date: The email service will be terminated at 23:59 GMT on the 31 August 2023. After this date, you will no longer be able to send, receive, or access your emails through this platform.<\/li>\n
  2. Backup and Data Retrieval: We strongly recommend that you backup and save important emails, contacts, attachments, or any other data that you wish to retain before the termination date. After the termination date, all data associated with your email account will be permanently deleted and will not be recoverable.<\/li>\n
  3. Termination Notice: We understand that time is a key point for a seamless transition. GTT wants to provide you enough time for you to be able to perform the needed steps to guarantee that all important data is safeguarded, therefore we are sending this termination notice with +60 days notice, which we believe is sufficient time for the migration of your services to an alternative email provider.<\/li>\n
  4. Alternative Email Service: We recommend researching and selecting an alternative email service provider. All of the major email providers have the capability and guidance to migrate your mail archive to their service.<\/li>\n
  5. Communication Updates: GTT will send a reminder closer to the termination of service date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    GTT would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude for your continued trust and support throughout the years. Please contact your account team with any further questions.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

    As we\u2019ve said many times before, it’s always wise to use a separate email service from the one provided by your ISP, and we assume that most of Easynet’s email users would have long since moved away. But in fairness, GTT has generally kept Easynet’s email service going for a very long time, which would make their platform one of the longest running – older even than Gmail.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
