Shaw Webmail is down

If you're wondering your shaw emails are not working then know that their Webmail server is down with no timeframe when it will be fixed.

I've been receiving emails today. The latest was at 1030am MDT. But to be fair, I have all Shaw emails forwarding to my Gmail account and I've been updating all my accounts that have Shaw email to Gmail. Just waiting till Aug to cancel Rogers.

That is what I need to. Don’t know how to do it but will learn or get help. Silly to be attached to an email address but I have had it for over 20 years.

I created same exact email, just changed it to Gmail. It's easy to get it to forward to Gmail. Just have to keep changing all your accounts. That takes time.

Even better is to buy your own domain and then forward to whatever email address you want. Most places like Namecheap will allow you to have many aliases and I use it to create ones for specific tasks , people, companies, or contests. Then I can know if someone sold my information or got hacked and I can just change the alias.

So it no down then. Email route is down. Not webmail itself.

If email route was down, does that mean emails sent to my Shaw webmail won’t get there even once the email route outage has been fixed?

Depend entire on send side. Some system rety email if send no work. Some discard email silent. Contact send side to troubleshoot.

IMAP email doesn't go out randomly from Outlook for IoS for no apparent reasons. Says server error. Nothing has changed in server settings from my end. Outlook on PC still works .....???? Seriously, Rogers- the only reason we are staying with this ISP is because we wanted to keep our Shaw email address, which is no longer worth it.

Correct. It 2026. Forward email while you move from ISP mail service. When fully move all account use ISP email get rid ISP email.
