Server 4???

Isn't there only two servers?

kc80027 · 8 Feb 2003, 01:38 PM

SSL at Server4 is what is not working:
https://www.fastmail.fm/mail4/login/

I successfully logged in at www.fastmail.fm and it appears that my account has migrated to Server 2. Not sure why.

I thought only two servers are put into the production line after migrating to NY center...

I wasn't aware that the servers had been reduced to two. I've been logging in daily, including earlier today, to "Server4" https://www.fastmail.fm/mail4/login/
Maybe the automatic link -or whatever- from the above "mail4" to Server2 is broken. I now am logging in securely on Server2 https://www.fastmail.fm/mail2/login/ with no problem.

Who cares?! Just login where ever you can login!

We kept mail3/4/5 pointing at server2 for a while after the migration, but it's not any more.

Jeremy, thanks for the clarification. I obviously haven't been checking out the forum for a while.

Well....I care about logging in using a secure channel (SSL/https) so my password is encrypted when it is sent to Fastmail. Also, by pointing directly to the server that hosts your account the page loads slightly faster. Rob recently posted that there really isn't much of a difference anymore. See this thread.
