Orange email systems gone bananas!

The change from BST to GMT seems to have sent Orange's email systems (or part of) crazy - I have an orange mobile with an associated email account. It's set up to send a summary of unread/total emails by text to my phone at midnight. I turn on my phone this morning and it hasn't stopped buzzing - 212 :eek: texts and counting - I had to plug it in just to keep it going!
 
Maybe they are all replies from that dating site you joined yesterday:D

lol! Has stopped now -594 in total. Multiply this by however many users have this enabled and its a recipe for disaster :D but orange (broadband side) seems to be a disaster anyway. Half the time I can't even get webmail access to my email account although it works fine by POP
 
Wow 594! That's a lot of text :) .

So are these all messages you've read before then, it's odd if they are because normally if you read a message then it's considered to have been "downloaded" from the server and a copy will no longer be kept. Mind you, some webmail systems operate differently from external clients like Thunderbird.
 
594 text messages! not email, you have confused the two - the email system sends a summary of the email account by text to my phone, so I had 594 text messages all saying I had two unread email! I find orange data charges to expensive to use email via my handset.

On the subject of orange email I have had terrible problems with spam advertising various 'pharmaceuticals' and 'cheap software' which I have managed to eradicate with a permanent deletion filter. Still get the odd one with subject lines that escape the filter. Don't seem to have this problem with my other email providers.
