Recently one of my customers exceeded their bandwidth quota. The culprit was email over-utilization. After increasing their bandwidth quota I attempted to send a test email to my client and received the following (sanitized)...

test

I logged into my DA control panel, then logged in to my client's account and selected E-Mail Management -> E-Mail Accounts.

On the resulting screen, where there had been about 6-8 email accounts, there were now NONE..., zero..., zip..., goose-egg!

So I'm lost! Where did these go?

The client does not access their own Control Panel (I don't think they even have the password). When they want changes made, they contact me... and I know that I didn't delete these email accounts.

I just find it uncanny that this would occur at the very same time that my client hit a quota limitation.

On the outside chance that someone other than me DID log onto my client's DA CP, is there a log maintained that will help me track this down?

Help?
 
Is it still suspended or not?

There is a login history in user level.
 
For What it's Worth... when I log into the server's console and navigate to /home/clientacct/mail, all of the files representing each mail user still exist. The users just don't appear in the DA CP.
 
Ok, my bad. Sorry. I deal with suspension so infrequently that I didn't see the checkbox and suspend/unsuspend button.

I'm going to slink into a corner for a bit... :o
